“We went to Mason's in Fernandina Beach, Florida. The clerk taking our order explained what each lobster roll contained and how it was prepared. We ordered lobster rolls and my spouse ordered lobster bisque and I ordered the New England clam chowder. Being from New England, I was anxious to see if their chowder measured up to "real" New England clam chowder. It was as good as or better!! The lobster rolls were toasted perfectly and full of lobster-they didn't skimp. We ate on their porch - a nice spot to enjoy lunch and people watch. Wish they'd open a spot here in New England!“

My experience started with the phone call to see if they had any openings last minute for a table for three and the gentleman couldn't have been more accommodating and welcoming. When we arrived, we were seated right away and the food and service were superb. I ordered the snapper and it was delicious. I highly recommend this place.“

“Had dinner here one evening on our vacation- got in quickly & our server was friendly. Strong food and beer selection. Overall, food was general beach bar fare: seafood, burgers, etc. My son did get the gator bites, but tasted more fried breading than meat. Great location on the marina- I could imagine there's a great happy hour or late night atmosphere.“

“First time guests, food quality and value were excellent. Minimally acceptable wine selection for a wine bistro but we managed. Very crowded and we had to wait 20 minutes for a table after arriving on time for our reservation. If our dining experience, once we got to it, had been less than exceptional I'd have gone with a lower rating.“

The only downfall, was today the weather was on the cool side. I'm quite sure it would have been a much better experience had it been warmer outside. It was really nice though.

“Absolutely hands down one of our favorite restaurants on the island and the absolute BEST for steaks. Gordon is an absolute riot and Graving is phenomenal. You cannot go wrong requesting either as your server and Rachel, the manager is absolutely fantastic...and has an amazing jewelry business on the side. If you want a steak do not go to Baxter's unless you'd like poor service and rubber.... Bob's has a wonderful atmosphere, friendly, attentive staff that remember you and make you feel special (and in Gordon's case you get a free comedy show), and incredible food. I highly recommend the mushrooms as well. Bob's is our go to for fine dining and a fun lovely yet friendly intimate atmosphere. Make sure you take a moment to relax by the fire pits and enjoy the march/golf course views.“

My 4 comes because the Sangria was very watered down & not much flavor ..like it was pre poured & the ice melted. We sat for over 10 min before our server even acknowledged we were there, after passing by several times. The atmosphere was fun! Live music. We will be back for sure.“

BUT they had some sort of chip or breading in the dish but it was extremely hard (or stale). It hurt my teeth everytime i bit into them.Second day i had the street tacos. The fish of the day was mahi and it was delicious. The shirmp taco was kinda boring and the chicken was enjoyable but not super great.Friendly staff with great service! Flore was our server!!!

“A yearly stop on our way to or from FL, this third time was not up to the level of previous years. We went early to avoid any Concours crowd (5:45 reservation) and our server could not have been more attentive throughout the meal. But they were out of clams (my go to favorite pasta dish) so I had the Carbonara instead (as did another in our party of four), which I thought was good and not saucy. Another in our foursome had the short rib special and thoroughly enjoyed it. Our four had the Bolognese and she was not impressed. We decided to skip dessert.“

My husband had the shrimp po boy and I had the Buffalo shrimp salad, both are exquisitely tasty. I also tried the crab hush puppies- I tasted a touch of crab in it but I was expecting more of crabs. But overall, I liked what ww ordered. The nice view and tasty food made it very easy for me to rate it 5 star. With an appetizer (crab grit au gratin) and 2 meals plus 3 drinks totalled $97 without tip.“

“I love this place for its food, friendly service, ambience and location. Will keep coming back. The folks dogging this restaurant 5 days ago received an apology and an enormous amount of freebies from the new GM (I know because I was there). Hopefully they can move past this incident and stop talking negatively about the establishment and GM, who apparently felt threatened by this group and thus the reason for calling the police. Very unfortunate but will work itself out“
