What a delicious experience! EVERYONE was very happy and satisfied! Which means a lot going out for dinner with a 6 and 12 year old and a husband weibischere a chef. We all ate different dishes and tried from each other's plates. Everything was delicious! The dessert was pretty standard but the appetizers and main courses were outstanding! And then the VIEW! Dining and enjoying the ocean is hard to beat! Absolutely worth a visit

Collin had too notch service for our family of 6. Love the hospitality

I ordered the prime rib, ordered rare to medium rare. It came out cold and gray. I'm not one to send things back but my spouse advocated for me to order something else. The server asked what was wrong, and I explained that I didn't think this prime rib was even cooked today. The chef came out and apologized, explaining that it was indeed a day old cut that she pulled for a soup and a fresh one is on its way. The second cut was *fine*. The check came, and while I don't expect a meal to be comped for mistakes, this particular mistake was pretty big and I wasn't offered a free cocktail or dessert in exchange not being able to eat with my family. Not only was it not comped, but it was $8 more. We asked the server to double check it with the menu for the correct price. He explained that there are two cuts of meat with two prices (not listed on the menu) but they only had the bigger cut so I had to pay the bigger, unlisted price. All in all a frustrating experience. Multiple restaurant employees allowed a grey piece of meat to come to the table, didn't offer anything in exchange, and overcharged. The chef and the server were kind -- but my spouse worked in restaurant management for 15 years and this isn't how to handle this situation.

This restaurant provide an awesome ocean view while enjoying your meal. The bartender Jessica on Monday was awesome and delivered great service. However the buffalo chicken egg rolls had barely any chicken , but definitely had a table spoon of cream cheese followed by a teaspoon of buffalo sauce in every piece which over powered my pallet. This made them very distasteful. But the fish & chips were great ,which I enjoyed with a Corona Sunshine beverage, and I didn't have to tell Jessica how to make it. A helpful hint to the chef, if a plate of food came back to my kitchen I would come speak to the customer to find out why the plate only had one bite and all the rest was untouched.

Ambiance and aesthetics was perfect with beautiful view!! Appetizer and means weee delicious and service was outstanding especially the new waiter it was only his third day!! We will be back!!

The food was delicious, I had the fish and chips and realize that it’s a new menu and new chef!

Was looking forward to this night but unfortunately Compass fell flat. Wasn't very busy when we arrived, got seated quickly then placed order for drinks and food. Drinks came pretty quickly but after an hour without any word on the food had to seek out our server who admitted he didn't put the order in. Then I had to repeat the order a couple times for him to remember it right since he wasn't writing anything down. Food was run of the mill and they comped the drinks but all around I was greatly disappointed. Wouldn't return here.

The food was delicious, I had the fish and chips and realize that it’s a new menu and new chef!

We enjoyed our time at Compass Bar! Ordered their special of the day and it was a hit! Food is very delicious, would definitely recommend this place and come back myself! Along with great food you get the best beach view from the 4th floor, where the restaurant located!

Wow, the view from this restaurant is absolutely breathtaking. It sits up high, overlooking the Gulf, which alone warrants a 5-star rating. We were lucky enough to enjoy the ambiance of live music during our meal, which made the experience even better. The new chef is incredibly talented, and it showed in my order of the daily special - White Pasta Florentine with shrimp - and my wife's Cajun shrimp on gouda grits. Both dishes were delicious. I'm excited to come back and try the seared mahi next time. Overall, this restaurant is a hidden gem that I highly recommend.

Our waitress was amazing, food tasted great my husband had trouble finding something on the menu. But the ceasar salad was so so good! The lobby looks fantastic and the view is perfect!

After waiting for 20 minutes after ordering wish I left. I would avoid the tuna dip it was not fresh or appetizing. I definitely left this place dissatisfied after spending $75 on 2 entrees and an appetizer.
