We love bwing able to dock our jet skis from riding on the St Marks river while eating at Riverside! The crab dip is amazing! And I always love my fried shrimp lunch. The views are just as good as the food. Highly recommended.

We went to eat there last night, I should’ve known when it said seat yourself we were gonna be in for a good one. So we seat ourselves and wait about 20 minutes until I guess someone finally realized and sent a server over. Server takes our order of drinks comes back about another 20 mins later with our drinks….you see where this is going right? Finally she comes back and takes our order and that was last we saw her for over an HOUR AND 20 mins!! Finally after getting up and searching to find her just to get some refills cause it’s 90 degrees and everyone has surely ran through their waters within the hour and 20 mins we’ve been sitting there waiting for food. She finally brings us our refills and then starts apologizing…She starts apologizing because she never even put our order of food in… I’ve never in my life left a review on any restaurant but this was the most ridiculous crap I’ve ever dealt with in my life. I will NEVER go back to that dump ever again.

Make sure to check your credit/debit card. Ordered two beers, took about 45 minutes to get. Paid the tab and left a $2 tip. The waitress decided to change my $2 to $12.

I used to love this place. We tried it again last night. There were only about 6 tables occupied in the whole place, so a crowd was not the problem. It took at least 15 minutes to even get acknowledged by a server. We thought about leaving.. we should have. Service was super slow. Food took forever. Fries were cold. Sides were missing. No condiments. I was finished eating before my husband even received his food. The overall experience was negative. We won’t be back, unfortunately.

Visited Shell Point Beach and wanted an “on the water” lunch and found this little gem! Being pet friendly our boy got to enjoy the views and lunch with us! Super cute and food was delicious!

Three stars for atmosphere because it's "Gilligan's Island has Spring break ".
Big barn-like tiki hut building and a sunken, listing barge.
NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. Just know it's not a conventional restaurant.
Mainly a fundrinkery but a good kitchen turning out the expected food in a competent fashion

All good. Great staff, middle aged harmless 'bikers' often there.
Who's not happy?

Great lunch or end of day meal. About the only place for hungry fishermen locally.

Unfortunately there were only 2 waitresses on duty when we arrived at 12:30 and at least 8 tables were seated. By the time our food arrived there were only a couple of empty tables. 2 more waitresses arrived but it was still understaffed for a crowd on a beautiful Saturday.
Had the grouper basket and chicken finger basket. Decent amount of food, just not the freshest tasting.
The location is scenic and there are many fans keeping you cool under the thatch roof if you can't find a riverside table.
Additional staff might improve the experience.

Parking: The parking lot across the street is shared with other establishments. 3 handicapped parking at the door.

Kid-friendliness: Well mannered children would enjoy the experience. However children must be watched so they don't end up in the river.

Wheelchair accessibility: The main area under the thatched roof is wheelchair accessible.

The hamburgers were of very decent size, and tasty. Service was excellent. On my scale of yummies, I am rating a 4 out of 5.

Parking: Raining hard, but parking led us directly in front of door, minimizing getting wet.
