What a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and affordable with very generous portions. Kaitlyn our waitress was very helpful and knowledgeable with any questions we had. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our needs as some people in our group had food sensitivities. We even saw another wait staff help a guest family member in and out of their wheel chair. The atmosphere was lively but still very enjoyable and not overwhelming. Definitely will be returning on this vacation and any others in this area. Highly recommend this restaurant. Also incredible view of the beach.

First of all do I have to tell you how beautiful it is on the beach in front of the restaurant on high chairs with an umbrella?! The great service from waiters that take an interest to their customers; down to the servers who brings out your delicious food with a smile! The drinks are delicious and very reasonable. I definitely recommend the mussels with the pasta with the garlic sauce and the seafood enchiladas!! Side note: as a LUNCH DATE (light eaters) those 2 dishes can can be shared...

I requested the beyond burger it was not cooked well, beyond meat used to be very good at this place and cooked well, but this time it tasted terrible. I couldn’t even tolerate the flavor!

If you find someone who speaks English, you're lucky, but be aware, this person will be very very rude. Because places like that don't need to attract customers and be polite with them... in this touristy and crowded area they can treat their customers like... you know the rest. Food is yuck

Great vibe, live music, clean, good service, but the fish and chips were a bit disappointing! They were overcooked and the grease seems like it may have nor been very fresh. I've had much better. The key lime pie was not good to me, either. It is often crowded which says that many people must like it though! I'd give it another try when hanging out at the beach!
Oh, to our pleasant surprise though, as we strolled by one evening, we noticed a fish & chips dinner that looked great! It was fried golden brown not dark/overcooked, and it was a generous looking portion. The lunch portion and appeal of the fish& chips fell very short vs. what we caught a glimpse of at dinnertime.

I love the service as much as the food. I came in for lunch and Jackie gave me the best service and greeted me with a smile. She made me a Bloody Mary just the way I like it. Great burger and was very fast. I will definitely be back! 💓 5 star service thank you!

This is one of my absolute favorite spots! 🌴 We love sitting outside—whether it’s on the deck or right on the beach, the views are unbeatable.
The drinks are incredible, especially the frozen/blended cocktails—perfect for a hot day. The oysters are a must-try, but honestly, you can’t go wrong with any of the fresh fish dishes here.
Service is always wonderful—fast, friendly, and attentive. Even though it’s always busy, the food comes out quickly and the staff never misses a beat.
Whether you’re stopping by for lunch, dinner, or just drinks and apps, this place is a must-visit. Beautiful scenery, amazing food, and a lively atmosphere—highly recommend!

Fun, casual dining, right on the sand. You can eat inside with AC, or outside too. Live music and drinks from multiple bars has people dancing in the evenings. Food is delicious with a fairly extensive menu and big portions. You won't leave hungry! (I posted a picture of the current Summer special deal ... check to see what's currently going on)
