This is my absolute favorite place in town. The food is delicious. The vibes are amazing. I drive all the way from Tampa to come here when I am craving a fun night with live music and amazing food! The coconut haddock and cesar wrap are my favorite! The staff is always friendly and the live music is always awesome. You can even see some gators and turtles in the water out back. Even when they are busy, the service is excellent! 5 stars all around!

So let's start with the atmosphere it is all you want and need from a dive bar in floridia on the coast the food above average the service is top notch our server was on all our needs with helpful suggestions that paned out. We had drinks and a beautiful peanut butter pie see Pic was above average and that not just the beer talking. So if you want to enjoy great music a nice view and great food come on over they will not disappoint.

This place was great! The place was spotlessly clean, even at the outside seating. The tables were really nice and comfortable and the river location was really really cool! The giant iguana statue looming over the inside of the restaurant was super cool! The food here was excellent! We got gator tail, and they really knew what they were doing to make the gator taste as good as possible! The fries were pretty good too. The French onion soup was to die for! My friends burger, he said it was absolutely perfect. The server did a great job! I was super comfortable here at this restaurant. Thank you so much! Definitely the kind of place to go again!

Great music, good food. The negative is getting a decent seat to enjoy the music. It's always crowded and little seating near the band. Yesterday we were planning on being there but when we drove up the parking lot was flowing on to the street and it was a long wait to get seated so we left.

Passing through on a fishing trip. Our server was efficient and the food was ok. My buddy liked the wings. But the volume level from a mediocre one-man band was way too much for conversation at 5 pm - even at the back of the room.

The food here is absolutely delicious! I personally recommend the boneless wings! They are homemade and hand breaded. Very yummy, big portions and pretty filling actually!! The Coconut and Crusted Haddock is wonderful as well! The best part by far is the live band

Terrible place to get a good seat. We tried to move our table 5 minutes after we sat down cause a table open up close to the band and management wouldn’t allow it. The hostess made us put our name on a waitlist and we watched that close seat stay available for 45 minutes!!! They finally called me 1 1/2 hours later when the very back table in the place opened! We continually would check back with the two people on the hostess stand and they kept telling us we couldn’t move! This was total harassment for no reason. This happens EVERY TIME we go there to watch the band. Were there all night and the bands the only reason we keep putting up with it but not anymore. I’ve gone to management numerous times about the hostess stand. They even put a total stranger at our crappy table of ten. We’re not the only ones who have trouble like this cause we hear other patrons complain to us. Great food but every time we go here they mess with someone in our group. I spent a whole evening talking to a supervisor and it just takes away from the night everytime. I make sure I tell everybody about their poor service to their customers. Management actually told my friend who just lost her husband to leave cuz she was late showing up to the table. Rude! That’s when I should of stopped coming like my friend stopped

Despite some earlier reviews the is place is NOT dog friendly. Even on the patio. Very disappointed pooch and me) 😕

This isn’t a place for cultured or respectful people. After being seated, multiple other parties were seated after us and immediately acknowledged, while my son and I were completely ignored for over 20 minutes. No greeting, no water, no offer for drinks—nothing.

What made it worse was watching staff actively engage with every other table while avoiding ours. It felt intentional, uncomfortable, and discriminatory. After finally speaking up and still getting no real response, we decided to leave.

Service like this is unacceptable anywhere, but especially when it makes guests feel singled out and unwelcome. We won’t be returning.

This place did not disappoint! The loaded fries are delicious. the fried provolone?!? Omg. Amazing. & The Shrimp is big and juicy.

They obviously changed management. The menu has changed. They used to have something for everyone to eat. Now the only non-meat/non-seasfood option is some is some under cooker portobello sandwich. I do not recommend. Silver dolphin up the street has options forever one in your party to eat and enjoy. Sad, we used to love coming here.

The music was extremely loud, which made the overall atmosphere uncomfortable and unpleasant. The staff also refused to accommodate my fish allergy, stating that they had nothing safe to offer. When I asked to bring my own food—since I was dining with a group of seven who had already ordered—I was told this was not allowed. No alternative solution or accommodation was offered so I could still join my group, and the staff did not even offer a simple apology. Overall, this was the worst restaurant experience I’ve had in Florida.
