Which this place was closer to where I leave!!! Today rained so it was a bad day to meet this beautiful place!!! The coconut shrimp was delicious! The staff was young and friendly!I was not a fan of the chicken wings with the sexy sauce.

Sundays on the beach. The food, band, and bar are excellent. It would be nice to have the cigar and vaping in one area with a fan. The fumes were mixing with the eating.

A fun place in Leesburg that is definitely different. The band was great and the service was upbeat and efficient. I did not eat there but the food looked very good.

I enjoy coming here in the warmer months. There’s live music, tasty drinks, good food, great staff and various places to sit with friends! They even have some sand toys for the littles to play.

Fun beach like atmosphere (sand and all) with live music and attentive bar keeps. Didn't try the food, so only 4 stars. I'd go again!

Festive atmosphere, good food and drinks ( the pork belly sliders were great.) and a live band with no cover.. All in all other than being a tad pricey it was a lovely way to while away a warm summer Friday evening

The beach is a nice get-away. It definitely has a tropical vibe, which is really fun. It is kid friendly, and lots of children enjoy playing in the sand. Good bands providing music gave a laid-back, relaxed vibe. Go up to the bar and order drinks and food. Grab a number and try to find a spot to sit. It was crowded when we got there, but we were able to snag a table pretty quickly. The kitchen got backed up, and we waited an hour for our food. However, the people watching, drinks, and band made the longer wait ok. Once the food came out was ok, I thought the atmosphere was what really had it going on. The pretzel that was larger than my head was warm, soft, and delicious. The steak tacos lacked some flavor. The hamburger was huge and wasn't bad, but could have used a bit more salt to bring out the flavor. This is a mixed review, but we are definitely willing to go back.
