The Seabreeze dominates the skyline of Cedar Key along Dock Street. One corner of the building has a tower that resembles a lighthouse, so it is easy to spot. The entrance is at ground level, and the bar is located on that floor. The main dining room, however, is on the second floor, which can be reached by either stairs or elevator. The decor suits the atmosphere prevalent on Dock Street, with weathered wood, sailing and fishing artifacts, and nets that have probably had a former life in the Gulf. The real attraction is the floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides of the dining room, affording a fabulous view of Gulf and Atsena Otsie Key. You will certainly see local fishermen bringing in their catch and usually a few sailboats. Pelicans often perch on the roof and fly close by the windows. You may even be lucky enough to watch dolphins play as you dine.
The food features local seafood, particularly the clams, which are farm-raised in the area. There are also non-seafood entries, such as steaks and sandwiches. The best desert is key lime pie. The Seabreeze definitely gives a true island experience.
