Red snapper was beyond amazing!
We went for our anniversary and split these entrees. We also had a taco appetizer. The corn shells were flimsy so I skipped eating that but the rest of it was tasty. The warm bread and butter was really good. The steak was done perfectly and the lobster was excellent. We sat inside due to a wait for outside seating. Our first table wasn't next to a window but our server moved us once another table was cleaned so that was nice.
What a pleasant surprise. The food was so fresh and it’s delicious! If you like beer battered fish and chips, they do have it, but it’s not on the menu. I had the beer, battered fish sandwich. Delicious!
I wish I took a picture of my food. But I did take a picture of the view. I have no idea how to attach the photos. We will definitely be back. Ask for Irene she is lovely!

We went for a birthday dinner with the family. I had the halibut special ,it was good , a little dry. My husband had the fisherman platter. Lots Of fried seafood. It was just ok. Nothing stellar to say but a good solid good. It wasn’t very busy on a Sunday night. The view is very nice. We got our table right away.

The fisherman is great!! It has the cutest most beautiful views from inside the restaurant and outside. The water looks great at sunset and the vibes are really great. Food was incredible the bread they serve was so so good genuinely haven’t had bread that good in a while. Got the burger and it was great would recommend for a great post beach day hunger.

Ok. So from the start hostess was nice. Got seated and received menus. At least 10 minutes went by before anyone even acknowledged our table. We ordered drinks and meals at the same time because we knew things might get interesting. Mind you it was 5pm on a Sunday. 3/4 of the tables in the restaurant were empty. Meals came out. Some of them. 2 weren’t even the right order. I saw the waitress looking back at the table second guessing things. We got the meal before anyone even received a drink or appetizer? I’m sorry this just isn’t right! We were with 6 total people. My food was cold but I wasn’t even going to send it back because I knew I wasn’t going to ever get it back. We Never got asked how our meal was at any point. One of our guests got their meal after most of the people at the table had already finished eating. Never a sorry or a compensation for anything. Sorry but I’ve been to this restaurant many many times. Spent thousands of dollars here. I will definitely not be returning!

Sat waiting no one came over to help.
I had high hopes for this restaurant because the atmosphere was absolutely beautiful. From the moment we walked in, the greeting was warm, the staff was friendly, and the view was amazing. The overall setting was definitely a highlight of the experience.
Unfortunately, the service did not match the atmosphere. Our waitress greeted us, but after that, everything took a very long time. It took a while to get our drinks, a long wait to place and receive our food, and we had to wait about 45 minutes for our meals to come out. We had a 6:45 PM reservation, arrived on time, and didn’t leave until a little after 9 PM.
The raspberry lemon drop martini was amazing — definitely a 5/5. The fish and chips were also enjoyable; the fish was delicious, but unfortunately the fries were extremely cold. The salmon had potential, but it was not cooked properly and seemed like the glaze was added on top without it being fully finished. The jasmine rice and vegetables were okay, but overall I felt the dishes could have been prepared better.
One of the biggest issues was the lack of attention from the server. I asked for ketchup and didn’t receive it until I had already finished my meal.
The restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere and a great view, but the service and food execution need improvement. The experience had potential, but the long waits and lack of attention took away from what could have been a great dining experience.

Food is good, but not above average. Staff is friendly... Appetizer course and soup course came out exactly together. Not a morsel of crab on the menu. One sort of crab leg would be nice. Place was nearly empty and closed before we heard the music 😂

Do not sit outside for happy hour. You will not be treated well for paying premium. My clam chowder was literally cold (obviously not made in house that day, bag chowder many restaurants order from), I asked for my check waited 20 minutes and had to go up and make sure I paid. This place is a joke..... Avoid!!!!!
Good food, great staff.

The rock lobster cocktail was good. The baked cod seemed too garlicky and salty. The roasted potatoes were fine but I felt like they could've used some interesting seasoning. The veggies were also fine, but the green beans seemed not fully cooked. I would try it again, but I wasn't blown away -- especially for the price!

Lovely restaurant. Beautiful views, excellent food.
We split a garden salad and had 2 huge portions. Followed up with mussels as ordered, and delicious crunchy bread. The Rib Steak was perfect! Cooked just right and served with garlic mashed and veggie.
A great casual beachy atmosphere. We'll see be back!
