No need to make that trip unless you really just want to go to Rockport...Crazy Cajun in Port A is the same thing and BYOB.
If you do go to Rockport I recommend the grouper sandwich at Moondogs and a piece of key lime pie...heaven!

There are several good spots in Port A, it's not worth the drive to Rockport. Now that Newport Dunes is open, I don't leave the island until I leave. When the wind is up, i hate that golf course, hate that golf course, hate that golf course...
Beulah's/Pelican Club is every bit worth it. We usually go for sushi one night, then sit in the dining room a second night. Dave the sushi chef is a genius, first japanese-mexican I ever met. Best French Silk Pie I've ever had.
Port A Brewing Co., burgers are worthy, good lunch spot.
When I hear Castaways or Virginia's recommended for food, I smile politely and move on. Good spot for a drink, get to check out the boats coming in, see their catch.
