Aden and Jacqui were fun, helpful, and it was one of the best meals I’ve ever ever had (Yellowtail snapper which I’ve never heard of).

Located along the Marina waterfront which is beautiful and active - a perfect place to sit and have a bite & sip a drink. We went during happy hour and had mini crab cakes, fish dip, conch fritters & a Caesar salad - all very good☀️Try the Ket Lime Martini if you like them clear☀️

Waterfront dining with really fresh fish and seafood and a lovely view to the harbor. Our waiter, Patrick, provided good service and advice for choosing the right meal. A very good dining experience.

The waiter we had was horrible and trying to tell our family the food was taking so long because the way we ordered it. Not professional at all. Food was cold and soggy.

Waterfront spot so can't go wrong there. Pat, our server, was awesome. Not over the top, just friendly and helpful. Food came out quickly (which was great because we had our toddler with us) and was really tasty. (Side note, the host that night gave us a plate for our kiddo without even asking, which I appreciated because tots are often nit taken care of.) The key lime pie martini is delicious and actually tastes like key lime pie. Personally, i wouldn't get more than one per sitting but they were yummy!
