Large portions which was comparable to the cost of the meals. The service was very good although it took a littler longer to get refills of our drinks. The food was very good. Everyone in our party of 7 got something different and no one had any complains.

Food was excellent. Service was great. We requested to sit outside and it was very hot, that ice would melt in our drink in minutes. Waitress continually brought us glasses of ice to refresh our drink. She was great. There was loud music coming from the place Nextdoor, so it did take away from the dining experience.

Great atmosphere for enjoying time with friends. Waitress was awesome but was leaving the area the next day. Five of us enjoyed the evening, food and drinks. Will be back

We had a wonderful seat at the bar and enjoyed a meal with a couple of beers. It was both delicious and delightful.

A must go to restaurant when we come to Florida every winter. Food is served hot and seasoned perfectly. Sitting overlooking the marina, having a cocktail, appetizer, entree makes for a great evening.

This restaurant is such a hidden gem. The food was absolutely delicious. We had the octopus and pork belly, calamari, corvina, and lamb shank and all were amazing with a nice middle Eastern flare to it.

Came to try because of the privileged intracoastal location. If you are looking for a culinary treat, I wouldn’t recommend visiting. Very few things I would have ordered from the menu and ended up with a Cesar Salad and the whole fried snapper in chili sauce because it felt like a safe choice. Fish was not fresh and the combination of flavors made it taste weird. Fish was accompanied with a rice that was dry and tasteless like if it had been reheated several times, but our server was so nice and friendly that we just decided not to send back the food and say nothing. The outside area is great if you want to enjoy the water view and a drink, but definitely would not recommend for dining.

Johnny our waiter had great energy and gave great service . Loved all our food and drinks especially the lamb Kafka app and the truffle chips & calamari .My husband had the lamb shank so delicious , I had the fluke special so wonderful other guest with us had the swordfish they said was outstanding.

Since it was our first time here we did the riverside table which came with two complimentary drinks. We started with the grouper bites which were amazing and then had the blackened fish tacos. I’ve never had fish tacos and couldn’t be more impressed with how delicious they were. We ended with a slice of cheesecake that was so rich and creamy and cooked to perfection. I would highly recommend eating here. Our bill was around $70 for two, but our drinks were comped so I would have expected it to be closer to $100

The appetizer was very good, Tuna nachos. For the main course swordfish and lamb shank. The swordfish was very thin (cold) and small (dry) and a few pieces of broccolini and small portion of rice. The lamb shank was good but the temperature could have been hotter. RH portions seem to be getting smaller and attention to detail (temperature of food) not being followed. To top it off it is pricey. It was very busy last night and maybe it was that but our server was quick getting order in and out so I'm not sure what the issue is.
