Fantastic sushi and awesome seafood options. Great atmosphere with indoor or outdoor seating with beautiful bay views. Best sushi and sushi chefs in Santa Rosa Beach!

We went because of the great reviews. The night we went was not a busy night. At 5:50 pm there was no wait to get in and we were seated immediately. Our server was very nice but not sure if the restaurant was low staffed or had other issues. It took over two hours before we left. We had a group of 13. Seven of us received our food and we waited another 15 minutes before the other six received theirs which by then some of their food was not warm when served. It was quicker to go and order a drink at the bar vs getting one served to us. Normally would not complain but when you pay as much as we did I would have expected better service.
We had a great meal and experience here. We had Sandor’s Ravioli and it was delicious! The live music the night we were there was also amazing and added to the ambiance of the place which was great already. The service was courteous and helpful as well. Will definitely go there again when we visit.

Came here after sunset for a nice meal with friends, it had wonderful service. I'm sure it's beeeautiful in the day time being right off water, even at night you could see the water due to the lights. Overall on my trip, this shrimp was the bottom of my list. It didn't have much to it, but wasn't bad either. The sauce was wonderful! I enjoyed the cucumber salad. My fries were cold cold but I chalk that up to the weather as it really got chilly out at night. Our server was so fun and personal. We talked about baking at the end even! Such a sweet girl. Price wise wasn't horrible!

Menu hypes you up but the food and drinks are sub par. We got drinks, apps, sushi and 2 fish meals & pasta dish. Over priced and way undelivered on all!

I had the Cajun Alfredo and it was superb! I added their custom hot sauce to the dish and wow, it was delicious. Also had the StrawBreeze which was such a great pairing! The waitress was so kind and informative, she recommended the Peanut Butter Pie and it was delectable. The prices here were standard for the area and are worth it for the service and food you receive.

Went around 8 on a Friday night instead July. Parking was wild. Had a 45 min wait for 2, but had open seating at the bar. Sat there! Bar tender was kind. Restaurant was insanely loud. Food took about 45 mins. It was good but nothing to rave about it. I had a Mahi blackened sandwich and the braised cabbage. My friend tried the ravioli dish. She said it was good but was disappointed that it had 4-5 raviolis for $45. Not sure I’d return during peak season, but it is a cute place that I’m sure is more pleasant and efficient early on a week night!
Levrit and Kyle are the best bartenders ever! What a wonderful experience Great staff and amazing food Good sushi Great cocktails
We had a wonderful family dinner here tonight! The sushi was some of the best we’ve ever had, mahi was fresh and flavorful, and the keylime was delicious. We’re going back for round 2 tomorrow! Ask for Tanya, she was a great server!

A local place on the bay side of the peninsula, the atmosphere is worht the wait. No reservations, but our group of 6 adults and 3 kids was seated outside within 20 minutes! Sitting basically on the each was a plus, as the breeze and view only add to the experience. Drinks were typical, apps were flavorful and varied. The Faux Ya Ya was supposed to be a favorite. Tried it and the kitchen sent out grilled shrimp instead of blackened. Server brought additional blackedned out within minutes. The ravioli had run out, but my prgnant daughter frowned when told that....surprise! The server added a couple of ravioli (not enough for a full portion, but enough to sample) to her filet. All in all, there are going to be hiccups in a busy restaurant on a Saturday night. How they handle them is the sign of a well run establishment.
We had dinner with a family of 6 and our waiter Alex was amazing! We had the Sanford ravioli , the Russell mania roll, cheese curds and more! Such a great view of the bay! The entire staff was top notch!
Perfect brunch spot, views are impeccable, and our server Alex was such a treat. I had the Bay Breakfast and my friend had the chilliquiles, both were divine. I will definitely be coming back!
Amazing views, food, live music, and service! This is definitely one of my new favorite spots on the panhandle. I ordered the ultimate platter and shared it with my daughter. The fresh maui, crab, shrimp, and sides were excellent and plenty filling for two. I hope to visit again soon. Be sure to arrive before sunset and allow time for photos after dinner.
