I have to say that the Shrimp & Grits was probably the best I have tasted in a long while. It was even better as leftovers the next day! I will definitely be back again.

This place has been incredibly consistent while maintaining high standards. I have had the jerk chicken with rice and it is delicious. The chicken is not dried out or tough. Just the opposite. The service has always been excellent. Friendly and efficient. There when ya need them but not hovering about. And the outdoor seating is nice too! Oh, did I mention occasional live music as well?

I recommend this to anyone looking for a solid experience and a tasty meal!

The only dish that was the most popular was taken down which was the Seafood lafitte who ever made that decision cost the restaurant my loyalty only dish that was amazing everything else I could get at any seafood restaurant… a lot of the dishes they have basically makes the seafood lafitte so for them to take it down was the most stupidest thinking ever. Doesn’t make sense in any form and the reason was to “ down size the menu “ but yet that dish is constructed by the same ingredients they use for others so that doesn’t clearly make no sense . Hopefully this mistake is a lesson for whoever made that stupid decision

When I was told about this I got up and left

Fantastic portions. Grilled chicken nachos were large and in charge. The Bay leaf on top felt fitting. My girl had the island rice bowl, beans rice and mango salsa topped with many items. 10/10 recommend. $40 2 meals with drink 🍹

We love this place. The stuffed mahi mahi is a Michelin plate in my opinion - full of flavor!

At first glance pulling in I thought with as many cars as are here no way am I getting good service. Boy was I wrong. Our server Emily E was absolutely amazing. Food was good and very timely considering how busy it was. We sat outside and the patio is pet friendly, we asked so as to know if we could bring our dog next time, and yes there will definitely be a next time.

Great 2x1 drinks and premium cocktails like Zacapa Rum. The Jamaican Jerky Chicken was really tasty!!! Salmon also great! Our server Dawn was attentive at all times. Thanks.

Eveeyobe has an opinion. My opinion is I did not like this restutant. The surf & Turf stack had exactly no flavor and you had to chew it for a long lime. The kids meal quesadilla with cheese and chicken was not your normal grilled, cut up chicken. It was breaded chicken cut into large pieces. The meatloaf had a weird tast to it. I do not reccoment the restruant.

I am a young server and I hate writing bad reviews but this is one. I ordered the stuffed mahi mahi and it was just a pile of mush. No texture nothing. We also got the pineapple chicken, the chicken was dry and the fries were straight crunchy like they were reheated 2 times. I am one not to really complain but I took 2 bites and pushed it aside. You could tell she wasn’t a fan of serving younger people. Which I understand. Im usually a 30~35% tipper and that was just something not to tip like that. It was really busy there so I was hopeful. I’m sad to leave like that.
