Frommer's Review
This new specialty market is an ideal addition to South Padre Island's dining options, and is positively heaven-sent for the condo renter in need of greater take-out options. Walking through the door, you're immediately in the mood for food when your nose catches a whiff of herbs and fresh-baked bread from the kitchen. Go to the food case and pick your entree and two sides, uncork a bottle and dine at leisure in the market's pleasant but small dining area, or take it all to go. The daily menu varies but usually offers Italian and Mediterranean entrees, as well as something such as an herb-roasted chicken or tenderloin, and vegetarian options (excellent appetizers, sides, soups, and desserts, too). You can order an entire picnic. The market section sells specialty foods, olives, wines, imported beers, coffees, and gourmet packaged foods.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
