My brother loves the food at this restaurant, so when it was time for us to celebrate his birthday, we called the Farm and were able to set up and reserve a table for 20 people on a Friday night. Our waitress, Rebecca, was an amazing server. She was incredibly professional, knowledgeable and one of the best servers I have seen in years. She was pleasant and knew exactly what she was doing, and she the reason our surprise party was a success. Her service was flawless and she was incredibly pleasant and always smiling. The Monkey Farm was so accommodating in getting us a huge table on an extremely busy night, (and the place was packed), but you would not know that that was the case because the service was just phenomenal. The food, from the appetizers to the main course was phenomenal. Some people had appetizers, some people had sandwiches, and some people big dinners. The meals all arrived with perfect timing and they were absolutely delicious. Thank you to Rebecca and the Monkey Farm for making my brother's birthday party such a fantastic experience for all of us. If you asked me to come up with one thing that I could complain about or change about our experience, , I wouldn't be able to find anything. Highly recommend! Thank you!

After leaving Water's Edge because atrocious service even with 4 bartenders on duty, we were so pleased to find TJ manning the bar at The Monkey Farm. Excellent service and fantastic food. TJ left nobody wanting covering a bar area twice as much as at Water's Edge that 4 couldn't manage. So, if you're staying at Water's Edge, skip the overpriced food and poor service, and head to the Monkey Farm. And with the price savings, get an Uber so you don't have to drive! 🙂

One of my favorite local places for fresh seafood, the baked scallops with Ritz bacon stuffing are next level🥰 always good specials too (bring back the fried chicken thigh sandwich!!), the nachos are smothered and melty.

I hope they shut this place down my friends and I got such bad food poisoning. Everyone who works there is so rude and miserable. I don’t understand what’s so unique about this dive bar. It’s disgusting and I will never go here again. They also have no A/C or regular heat from what I’ve heard. I’m not sure how this place is still in business. Shut this place down and open up something better!!
