We tried to contact them about bringing a large group for lunch. No phone, no email, and they did not respond to multiple inquires on their website. I guess they're not interested in our business so we'll go elsewhere. There's lots of other choices.

It's great to be able to visit again. Fun setting with happy, friendly staff. Great to visit by boat.

Very expensive for 3 people. 150 is a lot for us and we didn't even order much. Burger King has much better hamburgers. Will not be going there. Bad smell of dead fish when sitting outside. No waitresses, you have to go up to the counter to order.

Love the atmosphere. Food was okay at best, portions were small considering price. Drinks over priced. Did not appreciate they automatically charged a 20% service charge. Watch your bill. Paid $180 for 4 sandwiches and 4 drinks. Enjoyed the experience but won't return. Lots of other choices of waterfront restaurants.

Great location …BUT BEWARE OF A SERVICE FEE. Kind of sneaky . My friend commented on how expensive it was, so I looked at the receipt and they tacked on nearly $20 without his knowledge. Oh, they also add a premium if you use a credit card .

Didn’t eat here , only had drinks. 4 stars because the flys were obnoxious sitting outside with our drinks. 5 of us and they added a large automatic tip, so read your check carefully

Went for lunch on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. The drinks were cold and the food was delicious. We will definitely go back.

Found this boat-up gem 1 week before Ian. Wicked bummer to think of it’s current state but when it reopens I’ll be one of the first tying up to their dock.

This spot was damaged heavily in Hurricane Ian. They need to keep their clientele up to speed on opening dates, etc. Dock condition news is a must as you normally come by boat.
