About Jinks Creek Waterfront Grille

Jinks Creek Waterfront Grille offers a delightful dining experience with its picturesque tiki deck overlooking the creek and stunning sunsets. The upstairs Tiki Bar is a cool spot, providing great bar service and excellent food. The staff is polite, attentive, and friendly, catering to both couples and families. Guests enjoy great drinks and appetizers, with the bread served before meals being absolutely amazing. The food is mostly good, featuring tempting options like the popular fried snapper and shrimp, as well as the shrimp risotto, which is out of this world. The atmosphere is very pretty, perfect for sunset watching, though parking can be challenging and is very limited. With its wheelchair-accessible ramp and kid-friendly vibe, Jinks Creek Waterfront Grille remains a must-visit destination in the area, despite some menu items being frozen rather than fresh. The executive chef makes rounds to check on tables, adding a nice touch, but the service can vary between the Tiki Bar and the main restaurant.

The only problem with that was there were only 4 raviolis. She thought it was extremely good but if...read full review

Terrible service, food, and atmosphere. Waitress was extremely rude and even asked for more of a tip, which is optional. Avoid at all costs!
