Many guests have enjoyed the amazing food and stunning atmosphere, with the outside view enhancing the overall experience. The service is generally attentive, with friendly staff creating a welcoming atmosphere, though some reviews mention slower service and drink refills. Visitors often praise the food, especially dishes like the filet, coconut shrimp, scallops, coconut grouper, and bread pudding, which has been described as memorable. Reservations are recommended to enjoy a perfect dinner on the deck, and while prices can be a bit steep, many guests find the experience worth it.
