I'm really sorry but we wanted to stop in for years and did, yesterday 😔 my neighbors ordered half and full pound of peel and eat shrimp with a good bite of old bay seasoning, 🍤 shrimp were bland with little to no seasoning, I ordered the grouper filet and it looked like two pieces of leftover trimming without the flavor of grouper also ordered hush puppies as a side, they were cold In the mi

We had an amazing time at this establishment! The staff was incredibly friendly; we felt happy and welcomed there. Everyone was attentive to our needs but not in an overbearing way. We'll definitely return again! The food was amazing! Whatever you do, get the Waygu salt slab! Highly recommend 💚✨

My wife and I have been coming to Castaway for over 20 years, usually twice a year. It used to be one of our favorite places — a landmark with great food, a romantic atmosphere, and a sense of tradition. After taking a break for a a year, we decided to start the tradition back up and booked a late Valentine's dinner on February 15th. Unfortunately, it turned out to be the worst dining mistake we've ever made. Atmosphere: From Romantic to Nightclub The moment we arrived, we were hit with extremely loud house/techno music. Staff and customers were yelling just to talk or place orders. It felt more like a club than a restaurant. Even outside, the noise was overwhelming. Our table wobbled so badly that it spilled our drinks — twice — before the staff managed to partially fix it. Food Issues: A Complete Decline We ordered appetizers. My wife always gets the wedge salad and always asks for no blue cheese because it makes her ill. Not only did they change the dressing from vinaigrette to a bland “house-made ranch” that tasted like straight mayo, but they also scraped the blue cheese off instead of removing it. Plenty was still left. We politely asked for it to be corrected. Instead of simply fixing the salad, the server brought over a manager we didn't ask for. He clearly didn't care, didn't listen, and gave us champagne — which we don't drink — without even asking. Then came the entrées. We ordered the steak sampler for $140, medium. What we got was burnt, beyond well-done, and honestly something Applebee's could have done better. It tasted like it was cooked by someone who had never made a steak before. The manager came over again, still uninterested and dismissive. A Once-Magical Place, Now Unrecognizable We asked why the restaurant felt like a nightclub. Staff told us the owners insist on the loud music and that customers complain all the time. That says everything. The owners have taken a beloved, iconic restaurant and turned it into an overpriced, low-quality

This was my second time at Castaway, a restaurant I've recommended to family visiting from out of town. I decided to celebrate my birthday brunch here because of my previous positive experience. Overall, everything was going well and we truly enjoyed our server, Jason — he was attentive and kind throughout the meal. However, the experience took a concerning turn when one of my friends found glass inside her water glass. We quietly sent it back and initially chose not to make it an issue. Shortly after, we noticed that two additional water glasses at our table also contained broken pieces of glass. This was extremely alarming, as the situation could have resulted in serious injury. The manager offered us 25% off the bill, but given the severity of the issue and the clear safety risk, I felt this response was inadequate. Having worked in fine dining myself, I understand mistakes can happen, but something involving glass in multiple drinks is a major health and liability concern. In my professional opinion, the entire meal should have been comped. It's unfortunate because we had been enjoying ourselves and I would have gladly returned in the future had this been handled more appropriately. I hope management takes situations like this more seriously moving forward.

Restaurant was clean. Food was very good. Kaley was our waitress. She was awesome, very friendly and attentive.
Family get together for brunch to celebrate the New Year. The food was amazing as usual. Started with the calamari-it was very good. We each picked different meals - the Benedicts were the stars (1 prime hangar steak, 1 smoked salmon and 1 crab cake)...simply delicious. Also tried the Ahi tuna confit toast and baby kale salad...very yummy. Make sure to also order sparkling wine. Can't wait to return.

Very beautiful place. Went for the first time and it was a great choice. From the moment you get there its very nice. A pond in the front with some koi fish. If your seated inside or outside you get a beautiful view. Our server was very attentive and gave us the best service. Othet staff was friendly. Drinks and food very good. I got the short ribs (delicious) Valet parking only Clean restrooms
