Come here for dueling pianos and simple drinks. Don’t eat. The food is terrible. I can’t find the option for posting a picture, but I got the Blackened Mahi sandwich and the fish was thinner than the tomato slice. And additionally the fish was so dry I had to ask for honey mustard to choke it down. Gross.

Worst ahi ahi I’ve ever had. My husbands chicken Alfredo was not good either. Service & atmosphere were good. Food was overpriced & flavorless.

Good food. Great family atmosphere early on. Both musical performances are above average. I never expected to have this good of a time.

Went here because my friend said it was a piano bar. They had a piano, but someone was doing live music with a guitar. We didn't eat but had a couple of drinks. The place looked very tourist trap like, but I was surprised, and the bartender made me a dirty Gin martini that was better than I have had at fancy bars. I had a great experience there and would definitely recommend it.

Terrible experience. Management removed me from the premise without explanation or reason. Was supporting my friends on stage. Will never return. Will never recommend to any of my clients, bands, or friends.

The food was outstanding. The grouper fish of the day was phenomenal. The dueling pianos were also excellent. Had very very good service too. Highly recommend.

Known for their Dueling Pianos and Rum Punch, this place gets louder and more raucous as the evening progresses. Talented musicians and an appreciative crowd make for a fun time.

Multiple people, mostly women, have been drugged in this establishment. Several have resulted in serious injuries. Not sure why rum runners has done nothing, such as increasing security, to mitigate these occurrences. Be careful if you go here. It’s not worth it.

I would not recommend dining at this establishment. Our party consisted of 12 people and with a big group like this, we are used to automatic gratuity added to the bill. We asked if this would be the case and the answer was no. Additionally, our waiter, Juval, just made snarky comments about the group size and not being on one check. I understand that this is more work and can be frustrating, but this is a part of the job. If you can’t do that then don’t serve. The original bill for my meal was $22 and some change. However, while Juval took our cards he took a very long time with them. Normally for a group our size it would take about 5-10 minutes to run the cards. It took 30 minutes which was strange. During that 30 minutes I received a credit card notification for $32+. There was no stated auto gratuity and normally there are fees associated with restaurants like these, but 40%+ in fees? When Juval returned the receipt that is normally itemized was gone and the new receipt just had the total run. I asked to see the original with the itemized total and he went to the back and did not return with that. He just brought a new receipt with a $25 total. I asked for a receipt of the refund on the other charge and was not provided that as he said they will finalize at the end of the night. After I said this, our entire party realized all of their bills had been inflated. Unapologetic and no explanation for the increased total. If your server is Juval, I would highly recommend asking for a new server. Never before have we ever seen this and ruined our dinner experience. As stated, I would be wary of coming to this establishment in regards to fraud, mid food, but the piano was great. Will never be returning in the future thanks to Juval and will advise all that travel here to not dine here.

Javal tried to charge extra money on my entire party’s checks. He added somewhere from 22% -40% on top of our original checks. The only people he didn’t attempt to overcharge were those who paid in cash because he wouldn’t be able to get away with it. He was clearly not thrilled when he got caught and tried his best to skirt out of it until we demanded our original itemized receipts. Food was meh. Some was frozen. Love the piano players though.

Piano player was amazing, food was decent and well priced, but nothing special. Our server Juval tried to overcharge our entire party approximately 30 percent more than our bill should have been. We were in a large party, so I understand automatic gratuity as large parties are difficult to serve and a lot of work. However, he overcharged us way over the typical 18% gratuity. For example, charging 40 dollars for a 28 dollar meal. When Juval was called out for this, he was unapologetic and rude. Totally unprofessional and a very sketch experience.
