Hubby & I ate here as visiting for the Winter (from South Dakota)....OMG so amazing - will be back thru the winter stay for sure a few dozen times to keep trying other things....our Waitress Kayla P was super nice, helpful with recommendation suggestions of things to try.
We had my brothers wedding dinner here last week. We wanted a restaurant over the water. Beautiful restaurant. Great Food. Good staff. But it was so cold in there that we all couldn't even enjoy ourselves much less to hang around for a drink.. The thermostat was set at 61 !!! The whole room cheered when the manager came to turn it up. Pretty disappointing considering the amount of money we spent.
My daughter and I stopped by for lunch. I had crab cakes, mash and asparagus. She had a fish poboy. We split a slice of cheesecake. Crab cakes were delicious. My daughter isn't typically a fan of fish, but inhaled her sandwich. Would recommend.

The food is well cooked, seasoned, and served hot, with favorites like shrimp wontons, key lime pie, Tuna Tower, mahi mahi burger (jerk), mahi mahi tacos, and sweet potato waffle fries. The chef is highly praised for the first-class quality of the food. The GM and staff are friendly and attentive, creating a welcoming environment for families and groups. While it can be a bit pricey and occasionally there are delays or errors in orders, these are infrequent.
