In June of 2017, original owners Mike & Cat Meek passed the torch to Karl Cady, who brings with him a wealth of restaurant experience and a great love for food. Karl worked with Mike to learn all the recipes from scratch and is keeping all your favorite menu items just the way you like them - exactly the same!

Originally created in 2006 by Mike & Cat Meek and named after their daughter, Liza's Kitchen quickly became an award-winning restaurant loved by the local foodies. More than 10 years later, Liza's Kitchen has grown to be one of the most popular restaurants on the beach for local and tourist alike. We have been featured on Beach TV, reviewed in magazines such as Southern Living, won awards from TripAdvisor and has been a top contender every year in the local Reader's Choice awards, "Best of Bay".

“The Black and Blue Sandwich, served hot, for example. A stacking of roast beef, blue cheese, red onion and horseradish mayonnaise atop Liza’s fresh homemade Focaccia bread—baked every morning. Or the Hippie Chick (my personal favorite): roasted chicken, roasted red pepper, spinach, spicy mayo and melted goat cheese on Focaccia.” - The Circuit Magazine
