“We are from outta state and came to Florida for vacation, we decided to try this place for our 1st wedding anniversary. Let me just say it was exquisite. Alice was the best waitress my husband and I have ever had and guided us through the menu and was able to explain every thing in detail and give us an idea of the things we have never had. Everything we tried we loved. She was on top of everything and so attentive to us and all the tables around us. She 10/10 made this experience more than worth it!“

“Been coming here for years. Usually sit at the bar, tended most nights by Kelly. She’s always smiling, knows her drinks & will take good care of you. Mondays from 5:30 to 8:30 you’ll hear the whiskey-voiced singer-pianist Joe Thayer, who plays jazz standards, soft & classic rock, and a few pop tunes. Food’s excellent…lots of choices & a few daily specials—which sometimes go fast. Can get busy during the season…best to reserve in advance. Great place for holidays if you don’t want to cook!“

We enjoy the restaurant and the location. We will be back. Wish they would return the whole roasted Moroccan chicken to the menu. It was outstanding!“
