The best thing you will find in Zelda's, are the beautiful waitress they have. It's also a good place to have something to eat right on the beach .

Somehow I had a particular craving for fried calamari . 😁 I just love to enjoy my seafood with an ocean view ... 👍🏼 I have to admit, that sure does serve as quite a good start to the weekend! 👌🏼

Great place to have a drink right on the beach , happy hour starts at 2:30!

Wim Mostmans

Not the cheapest place too grab a bite but the beautiful beach view , coconut prawns and live music make up for that.

Anthony Vasquez

Great bar for night life and live music . Good booze selection, fair beer selection with nothing on tap .

The Mahi mahi sandwich had too much bread and I was unable to taste the fish .

Gina Miller

Dogs welcome but plan to take your time...service is spotty at best Turkey an avocado scramble is great!

Barbara Biven-Poynter

Patio seating was beautiful today. Wait staff and food was excellent!!! Parking is a pain though.

$16.20 for a bacon cheese burger ! WOW. Its Santa Cruz not Hawaii! Go to the Brit!

Great view - ask for a window seat . Everyone's super nice and the food is awesome!

Emily Robledo

The bloodys are NOT world famous. My husband used 1/4 bottle of tobasco to get it "kinda" spicy . I forget that the food lacks where the view is good, which I'll be back for.

Kristin Galvin

Great place for breakfast . Servers are very attentive, even when understaffed.

Emerald Reilly

They have a blended Irish Coffee ! Delish on hot beach days.

Dogs are allowed outside the fence. Plan on crappy service and you will be in a good mindset.

Nova Smith

Happy hour all day on Wednesdays.

Ask for an umbrella.

My favorite is the Zelda's platter.

Bettina Pancho

Sitting on the deck is nice.... But other than that, service is a hit or miss (well , it's usually shitty), and the food is nothing special.

Adam Stephenson

Love the calamari , big and chunky!

Service is bad at best... Rude bartender and hostes. Food was not what I expected. Calamari was ok , but the fries where beyond soaked in oil...not really what u call food. And for $20 . Dontgo

I will do my best to be a fair and just mayor.

Bekah Collins

Bad service. Workers not working. Only a few do. Way over priced and it's not even that good. Don't go. Go somewhere else.

Joe Klegseth

Nice place but the bathrooms are disgusting. Kinda expensive too.

Toby Morning

Chilling on beach on Saturdays rocks
