“Very nice restaurant! Very good food and service! Be hungry, they serve a ton of great Mexican food!“

“Met friends there this week. Malakai was our server. Had a great time. He was totally informative and a lot of fun. The food was delicious. Will be back. Sat outside. Very nice.“

“This place is the perfect casual relaxed Tikki bar. The guacamole is to DIE for !!!! I ordered it on the suggestion of Kat the barlass, whose service was absolutely incredible !! I followed the fresh made guacamole with the grilled ribeye and it was a perfect blend of flame kissed savorieness and a very slight scald flavor to give it some earthiness. The prices are reasonable the atmosphere is relaxed and casual. This place is worth driving out of your way for. You will NOT be disappointed!!!“

“We will absolutely be back! Our ride was perfect, & cool in the shade of the Tiki Bar with a great breeze. Nick played great music & made sure we paused to see some dolphins. He took us to a great restaurant along the water & made sure we had everything for our ride. You should absolutely experience this if you’re in the area!“

“The service is top tier. The food was amazing… the restaurant was immaculate. The best naan we’ve had in a long time. The appetizers were beautifully presented and amazing flavor. We would have taken pictures but we were too busy eating. We’re visiting from the Orlando area, and we do have restaurants in our area, but none are this good“

“I ordered Christmas dinner online a week before Christmas with a 23rd pick up. However when I went to pick it up they did not have my order. The manager Shane came and talked to me and he looked and could not find my order. So he took my order right there and filled it for me. I paid and he said if I got billed twice to come back and they would take care of it. They offered me something to drink while I waited. Shane and the staff were wonderful and helpful. When I got home I looked and I had not been billed twice. We have not eaten there before and we will be going to eat in. Thank you all for your help. Adding to my original post: Had their Christmas dinner for 4. It was Turkey which was so moist and tender. Loved the potato’s and the cranberry sauce was perfect. First time not cooking and it was so nice. Thank you for such good food.“

“Great food but most importantly, great people make this restaurznt the best of it's kind anywhere in SW Florida. Shrimp portions are generous and if you like real southern cooking. Their authentic gumbo and creole jambalaya will warm your heart. If you happen to want an even warmer heart, you can up the heat with the ghost pepper version. You will encounter some great cooks and some attentive servers who will make your visits habit-forming!“

“Great steak tacos! Great ceviche and great service! Will be back!“

“Amazing staff all of them are great!! Drinks are delicious and well priced! Always something fun happening and the vibe is always on point! Some of the best pizza and wings around, and the phillys are delicious as well! Def a fun place to go have some drinks and food. Nothing fancy at all but it’s 100% worth checking out!!“

“Would like to thank everyone for the hospitality and not drooling all over me. I had a wonderful time. Tell Tom (Tequila & Budlight) thanks for inviting me to his favorite place.“

“Was there last Saturday with group of 8, service was excellent, great variety of food. Everyone in our group was pleased. Loved the Band.“
