We went there for the game on 9/23/18. The onion rings were crispy and delicious. The grouper fingers were delicious, crispy breading and flaky moist grouper. The service was amazing. The place is a beachy bar, typically what you would expect. We had a great...More

This is our third visit in 4 years and I have to say I wouldn’t return. The food is very average and expensive. I had the same meal that I’ve always had here and it was not good this time. We were a party of...More

We visited three times, twice to eat and once to listen to the live music in the evening. The food and service were fantastic and the setting really relaxing, the red tide thankfully didn't effect our visits to much. The Ice balls cost me $12...More
