So good we ate here twice! The lobster grilled cheese and lobster roll were both absolutely mouth watering. The blue crab stuffed shrimp was delicious and full of flavor. Coconut onion rings were just ok as they were missing a good complimentary sauce to go with them. Not to mention the live music no matter what time we went. Will definitely be back every time I'm in town!

I ate here one evening with a large group of friends. There are multiple reasons contributing to my one-star rating. The first was the fact that it cost me $10 to park. I feel that the prices here are very high. I was also unhappy that there was a 20% tip added to my bill. The fact that this would happen is clearly posted on the menu. The fried shrimp were very good. The vegetable was a mix of yellow squash and zucchini. The chunks of each were very large and very overcooked. They were tasteless. There were a couple of chunks of red bell pepper mixed in. These tasted wonderful but they too had been cooked to the point of extreme limpness. I was very impressed by the woman who waited on us. She was competent and friendly. A friend gave me a bit of his appetizer which was some shrimp. There was a bit of granary with it as well as an orange sauce. This was delicious. Because of the total cost of the meal and the fact that such a poor job was done on the squash, I do not plan to return. If money is not an issue for you, please don't let my review and rating discourage you

Carla is the absolute best waitress, she had a great personality and recommended great food. I highly recommend getting the gator, that sauce is divine. We also had the cornbread and it was nice and soft. The orange butter was great, but would have been better with a different bread. The cornbread didn't need anything it was good on its own, but we didn't want to waste the good butter. Every single blackened sandwich was outstanding, and the tarter sauce was tasty. Eat here, have a great time with Carla, enjoy the music and the view.

My gf loves to go watch the people dance! Lots of seating options. Food was decent but for some reason the server acted like we only wanted drinks and apps. Good week night place.Hostess needs a raise, she was so sweet! Earned you 5 stars.

First time here, but hopefully won’t be the last. We went here after the beach with the family. Delicious food!! 4 people ordered and every person loved what they got. They seemed short staffed maybe, cause it was hard to find the servers at times. But the food and view more than made up for it. Definitely recommend.

We had a very good lunch at Nervous Nellie's. The Mahi tacos were excellent. Great view of the boats going in and out of the bay, especially from the 3rd floor.
