Loved this pool bar! The service was top-notch, the food was delicious, and the overall vibe was just perfect — super chill and friendly. Even though it was the off-season, the place still had awesome people around. Definitely one of those spots you can have a good time, and enjoy every minute.

The Hostess didnt say anything to us as we came in-new to this restaurant. It had been raining on the lake and my family of 4 was exhausted and hungry. After wandering around for a minute a guy came over and took us back to the hostess. The food was the worst..ever. Gator eggs looked good, but also slightly burnt. They were cold in the middle and had powder from the breading and spices not being mixed right inside -which wasnt a good taste to have in your mouth. The guys liked their burgers, but my daughter's chicken tenders looked burnt, she said they were dry and tasted like old oil. My pizza was eh and the fries tatsed freezer burnt or something. Gave a 3 for service because our waitress was nice, but her throwing what was left of our drinks into the lake as we were leaving kinda threw me off (we sat on second level with a lake view). Not a great experience or what we expected for a first time there. Definitely won't be bragging on the place to anyone we know with a boat new to the area. Dogs are allowed inside and we have a child with an allergy. Also no real vegetarian options except starches. Need to clean the dock off too..not sure if that was dog poop or bird poop, but not appetizing to see when youre coming in to eat! If we weren't starving we would've left but, ya know. $100 for subpar, not so good bar food. Wanted to talk to a manager, but honestly didnt know if there was one!!

The food is incredible. The gator bites are delicious, and so are the wraps. Highly suggest.

The female bartender on the concert side is by far the best! She goes over and beyond for her customers.
The venue atmosphere is almost electric, we always have so much fun at their concerts.
I wish the venue was closer to the condo, lol. Uber rides can get pricey coming back from there.

Came here for some drinks and to swim in the pool that overlooks the lake. Places to dock your boat.

The security team inappropriately touched multiple members of the party I was with. If you are not prepared to defend yourself and others around you, do not come here. The pizza was also terrible
