Persimmons Waterfront Restaurant offers delicious food with stunning views of the bay. The scallops and fish tacos continue to be highlights, and the book-themed cocktails are still a hit. The outdoor seating provides a great ambiance, with specialty seating available for those looking to enjoy drinks outdoors. The staff, including the amazing waitress Bella, are known for their kindness and friendliness. Vegetarian options are available, and dietary restrictions can be accommodated. Parking is ample, and the restaurant is wheelchair accessible with ramps in front and back.
While there were some minor disappointments, such as a lack of acknowledgment for a birthday celebration and a delay in receiving a to-go box, the overall experience remains positive. The quick service, delicious calamari, and fish tacos, along with the live music, continue to add to the enjoyable atmosphere. However, some recent visits have highlighted concerns regarding food quality, with issues like undercooked fried green tomatoes and lukewarm seafood Alfredo. Customers have noted that while the staff and atmosphere consistently deliver excellent service, the food sometimes falls short of expectations.
Highly recommended for a dining experience with great food, views, and service, it is advised to arrive before 4:30 PM on Saturdays to avoid potential delays.
