Here’s the scoop, in recent memory I cannot think of a place that seemingly went out of the way to ignore their guests. But if we thought moving to the bar was a better way to secure timely service, we couldn’t be more wrong. Totally invisible. I guess you have to suck some toes to get anywhere. And the one man band sucked too. Take a chance if you dare, as for me and mine we will not darken their door step again.

Took my wife out on a date here and its a cute place and amazing food! She got the fish sandwich with frenchfries and i got the lobstah roll with coleslaw with a cup of clam chowder to share, every was really really good! The chowder is just like back home in NH, amazing! The fish sandwhich was really big and delicious! The lobstah roll is HUGE you get it on a big subroll with plenty of lobster and celery, it wasnt overly dressed it was actually perfect, lightly dressed with celery and not alot of seasoning so you can still taste the lobster! When we went lastnight it was busy but Patty made sure everything was good, thank you!Jessie & Kayla

The bartender, who was also the manager named Patty, was not attentive at all. Sat for close to 5 minutes. Even after saying, "Excuse me and calling her name, we were completely ignored. She walked by and looked at us 3 times and still ignored us. There were only 15 people in the bar! Everything was great, but I recommend not going if Patty is working.

Server was very nice but overwhelmed a bit. The breaking point was when the other server cussed out the cooks for cold, hard food that was turned away. Then they proceeded to cuss her out behind her back. Nope!

It is tough to get a meal on weekends in Tarpon so this place is a little off the beaten path and we were able to get a table right away. But it was busy and service took a really long time to order and get food. Seats by the water are nice.

Arrived at 11:30a for lunch. The friendly waitress let us know she didn't have the specials yet because THE BOAT WASN'T IN YET!!! How amazing, such delicious fresh caught seafood. Wowza!!! What a gem. Grouper sandwich and lobster shrimp salad. Waterfront rustic, watched a herd of pelicans in the mangroves down the way. Priceless.
