Excellent views, generally good food…and when the risotto and sauce aren’t the great servers make it right.

The location is perfect for enjoying summer seafood in the afternoon (around 4pm in the weekend). Despite the menu is very generic, the service and atmosphere there is very amusing! Good experience over all!

Nice spot with good views, tables adhered to social distancing rules. Food was fresh and hot, a little expensive in my opinion but the food was great!

Have never eaten here but love the landscaping . They always put large Queen palms out for the summer and it always makes for a nice picture

I wasn’t impressed with this spot. Usually when you get to a place that looks like it needs a little care, the food and service make up for it. However, this wasn’t it. My party arrived when it was relatively slow, slow enough for staff to be standing around and chatting to each other, which is fine. But my party didn’t receive any service for almost 10 minutes while the staff just talked with each other. Eventually we got menus and ordered and the wait for the food wasn’t bad. However the quality of food was severely lacking in flavor, so I’d recommend just drinks and super basic foods here. On the flip side, it’s by the water with an awesome view, and the music was actually pretty good.

Nice location, but the food isn’t great. Steamed mussels were dry and tough, nachos were dry with very little cheese and anything else, and the ribs seemed reheated and had bottled sauce. The steak sandwich was good though.

Service was pretty poor. Didn’t get asked one time if I needed anything. Had to over and over ask for drinks on seemed liked a slow day. One bartender was okay that knew people I was with. First bartender didn’t seem to care at all about ensuring we needed anything. Owner must be losing crazy money because I would have drank more had I had the opportunity to get more. Food was sub par. My sweet potatoes fries came out soggy and cold. Their chicken tenders were smaller than any order I’ve received in my life. Seemed to be in line with a kids order. Couldn’t be bothered to send order as the service was already inhospitable and they didn’t even come over to ask if everything was okay. Decided to just never give them business again. One of my most annoying restaurant experiences ever. Wouldn’t go back even with free vouchers. Only reason I’m not rating 1 is the staff wasn’t rude and was friendly when I did have to ask them for stuff over and over rather than being asked if I’m content. Owner should 100% look into what actual customer service looks like. Coming from someone who was in the service industry. Really bad.

Don’t go here for the ribs. The baby backs were tough tough and chewy. I’m guessing they’re cooked too quick or sit around for days. The sauce was nothing special and needed to be scraped off. The special nachos were not. They had very little cheese and not worth the cost. The service was fine. Again, don’t go here for the food.
