Best venue on the water with the best service!!!I hosted a rehearsal dinner here, the night before we got married on a cruise. Spoke with Kristin the manager and she arranged everything, we did party platters and had a server for all of our bar drinks! She had our party set up when I got there, and it was on the outside deck and it truly couldn't have been more perfect.THANK YOU FOR EXCEEDING MY EXPECTATIONS!!! We will definitely be back to see a sunset on the water again!

Fun quality restaurant located on Port Canaveral in the middle of all the excitement. Kid, friendly dog, friendly lawn games, live music all on the backdrop of Port Canaveral.. Cruise ships recreational vessels rockets going off happy people tasty food fun service music . We heard the kitchen staff was managed by some “Hot-Shot” kid named Jensen. The whole crew was happy. We listened to music by Almost Maddie and had a wonderful time. All the staff was helpful. The local patrons were fun to hang with. We will visit Gators every time we come to Canaveral to see a launch.Buffalo cauliflower was awesome !Vegetarian options: I had the buffalo cauliflower it was awesome!Dietary restrictions: Varied menu, consisting of vegetarian options, salads soups, you can ask for no bun if you’re watching the carbsParking: Huge parking lot don’t worry about finding a place to park. You’ll be all right. Just come here and eat be happy.Kid-friendliness: Bring your well-behaved kids follow proper parental decorum and have a great time!Pet friendly also !Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of parking with wheelchair, accessibility ramps in and out of the restaurant

Kylie was our server and soul reason I felt welcome and comfortable. The food was great. She suggested we try the alligator bites and that just blew me away as to how great they were with the gator sauce ( highly recommended). I cannot thank her enough for her enthusiasm in serving me and my husband for our anniversary. All of her suggests were spot on and worth all it's weight in gold. Definitely a must try and go see Kylie at the bar.

Used to be (past tense) a great sports bar with great food. The Tiki bar was terrific and my favorite in the area. They have recently changed menu to expensive ( not quality) and let go the best server/bar woman in the area (Jennifer). The bottom line: avoid this overpriced and understaffed eatery.

We waited over 45 minutes after ordering for our food to come out and there weren't that many people in the restaurant. Once it arrived it was very poor quality. The lettuce in my salad was slimy. The "flatbread" looked like pizza from an arcade. The burgers we couldn't even finish because they just didn't taste good. My son's meal was dropped on the floor by the kitchen. I felt bad for my waitress. Very poor experience.

Everything about this experience sucked. We were waiting 25 min while there was a restaurant full of empty tables inside and out. When we finally got sat it took forever to get our drinks and altogether 45 min to an hour to get very basic food that was all poorly cooked and my partners entree was missing. He was so upset he went and waited in the car. They eventually brought it but it’sjust going in the trash. There were barely any tables…. I don’t understand why this happened. Ruined our entire evening ( we couldn’t attend the plans we made because this took so long ) but me and my friends will NEVER come here again.

Worst restaurant I’ve ever been to. Great location, uninformed staff. Menu sucks too. Placed on a wait and given a buzzer with 80 percent of the restaurants seats open. At least seat your customers somewhere and have them wait at a open table. Food was also highly priced with cheap quality.

The chicken wings were a bit pricey and the preparation could have been better. The taste was not as enjoyable as I had hoped.

A great dining experience. Nice spacious restaurant with a nice view of the dock. I would like to especially compliment our server Niki. A1 employee. Nice, friendly, courteous and engaging. My wife Tracey and son Jason and myself could not have been better looked after. She was absolutely wonderful to us. Please recognize her for her outstanding service. Thank you!P.J.
