We did not have a reservation, so were told that we would have to eat upstairs at the cafe. I must add, that we arrived at 8 PM and there were many empty tables, but maybe they were short staffed. Our server was excellent, ambience is lovely, but portions are “tapas” sized with full dinner prices. Cocktails are a measured pour, but fine.

Beautiful location, nice atmosphere, beautiful view. Food was expensive and attractive, but some dishes better than others. My shrimp appetizer was great, but my fish tacos were very soggy.
Visited November 2025 during a 3 week trip to Florida and Keys. This was hands-down the best meal of the entire trip. Atmosphere was phenomenal, service was exquisite and the food was exceptional. Our party of four all enjoyed the meal tremendously. We had reservations and were glad we did.
