What a waste of $100. My husband came home with seafood from here and I was excited to try someplace new. So disappointing. This place is down the street and somehow the food still got here cold. The Thai Snapper was full of spines and the shrimp with vegetables tasted like dirty dish water. The lobster bisque was greasy and tasteless. I’m not sure how this restaurant was full considering the quality of the food when you can get better seafood anywhere else.

Tough to beat the value and quality of the fish and seafood here. Always a great experience. The food is always delicious and a delight to the palate, plus served nice n hot. Chefs are geniuses! Even the Raspberry Vinegarette salad dressing is to die for (and I'm not a salad person.) Could benefit from audible background music to complement the dining experience.Add to this a rustic throwback warm atmosphere which is always enjoyable as are the servers who are always attentive, upbeat, and knowledgeable. Wines are value priced too!Harkens back to top seafood restaurants of yesteryear with a modern, well thought out and varied menu. We're regulars. Place is always busy yet wait times are minimal. Love the decor and fish tanks! Highly recommend!

This is hands down the best place to get Seafood. Everything they make there is delicious including the steaks. In particular though, there is no place I've ever found that gives you a better piece of fish or better portion. Great selection that has a wide array of styles. Can't go wrong with this one!

Food wasnt the best, for my tastes. There was some confusion as to the location of the host stand, as there is one right inside the door, but they are actually on the otherside of the wall. Figured it out after several parties kept walking around.The food was ok, just not anything of the quality i am used to. The bar was busy, but again the cocktails are standard far with mass produced sour mix and mixers.

Good food, nice atmosphere. Just don't show up with 5-7 in party as you will wait. They turned about 9 two and four tops before out group of 5 could sit.

Not a huge fan. Bartender made our whiskey sour drinks with actual sour mix. ? Took about an hour and a half to get our dinner. Waiter was nice enough. Just nothing about the restraunt wowed you. Hostess acted and looked liked rather be anywhere but there. Never a good first sign when you walk into the restaurant.

This place is a hit or miss, had dinner ordered a scallop and shrimp entree. For $32 And I had two scallops and two shrimps It was more like an appetizer It was a really waste of money. And it was tasteless on top of that very disappointed..

I would highly recommend this place. Food was delivered in a timely manner. The vibe is pretty chill. Be mindful, place was completely full when we went (it was a Tuesday). Since it was just two of us, and we were celebrating our anniversary, we were lucky enough to be seated right away. I had the 8oz lobster tail and it was the best I have had in my entire life. Food was so fresh and you could taste the quality of the meal. I also had sushi, and honestly, best sushi I've had in Miami.

Service was a little slow but They were short staffed. I have been going here for years and the ambiance is always friendly and enjoyable. I had stone crabs claws - of course they were great ! We also had grouper 2 ways and both were awesome Definitely go here and you will be happy you did .
