Florida’s 17 Most Legendary Restaurants

“Bud & Alley’s is an iconic oceanfront eatery along Highway 30A. Founded by a couple of 24-year-old surfing buddies (and named for a cat and dog in a town that only boasted twelve houses at the time), it was the first restaurant and watering hole to open in Seaside. It’s still serving up its beloved crab cakes today. Take in the sunset from the rooftop bar with epic views.”
