The Florida Shrimp Salad was very good (didnt like that the tail was left on the shrimp). I really enjoyed the Jerk Salmon Bites. The drink I had, forgot the name, something with the name 'Twist', didn't have much liquor. I'm a lightweight drinker and 2 of those were like drinking soda.
The server was friendly and pleasant. Service did feel a little slow at times, but overall it was good. The waterfront view is absolutely beautiful. Nice place to watch the sunset.

If I could give zero stars I would. Went here for my bachelorette trip, and I made the reservation 6 months in advance to make sure everything would run smoothly. We were not prioritized at all. One of our girls has a severe allergy and was mocked by the staff. Our drinks took over an hour to come, and once empty, we were not offered another while we waited over another hour for APPETIZERS and our meals. Some of the girls didn’t even get their meals as the staff “forgot” about it. Staff are incompetent and not apologetic at all. Save your money and just go elsewhere. I have no idea how this place is still running. So disappointing and such a waste of our time. Thanks for nothing!

Romantic and gorgeous place

Just save yourself the money and don’t go. On top of our drinks taking an hour to come out, and food another hour, I expressed to my server that I had a severe allergy in which she giggled and completely disregarded. When food was brought out two hours after arriving, my food was quickly swept away due to the kitchen not being alerted. Possibly they were trying to do me a favour? Because after over two hours of waiting for food, the food was disgusting anyways. I am actually shocked this establishment is still open and functioning, filled with incompetent employees. We alerted the manager to our concerns, all she had to say was she can check, not even an apology for their total disregard of someone’s life who could have been seriously affected by this.

Still under construction but on its way back! I'll be back!

I had the Mahi Mahi taco's, a fish so nice they named it twice! My wife had the Turkey bacon wrap. The Mahi Mahi taco's tasted great and were surprisingly filling! Christine served us our food, cold beer's and plenty of friendly conversation. Thank you and we'll see you again.

If I could give 0 stars I would. We sat for over an hour before we were served a drink. It was over 40 degrees outside and we were not offered any more water than the first glass we were given. We asked multiple times when our food was coming out after waiting almost 2 hours and our server laughed in our face. What a disgrace of an establishment. We made a reservation MONTHS ago. You would think they would prepare with enough severs to service our group. This ruined our friends bachelorette trip. Also - our friend has a SEVERE allergy who they did not note down and they could have killed her.

Unfortunately I can't give an opinion about the food or drink. We waited about 15 minutes for a table on the patio. There were several open tables but were unbused and appeared to have been unbused for a while. At one point what looked like a manager, came out looked around. Apparently we were invisible and so were the unbused tables. After about 30 seconds, the manager went back inside as though everything was fine on the patio. Eventually the hostess bused the table, a few minutes later someone else wiped down the table and we were eventually seated. Then we waited, and waited. After another 10 minutes a waitress greeted us and took our drink order. Again we waited and waited. After another 10 minute wait, we just left. No drinks, no dinner. I gave 2 stars for "Atmosphere" since the view was fairly nice and the adjoining marina is nice for walking around.

I am a local and meet friends for appetizers and drinks at the open air bar on the dockside water view area. Pleasent and enjoyable.
However, if you prefer Coke as your mixer with rum, spiced rum, or bourbon, you will only have a choice of Pepsi. Which are too sweet to accompany they above mentioned spirits. Why can't SWFL restaurants & bars have the choice of both???
