"Food was bland and small portions for my pasta dish. We thought over priced. Guess you pay for view of river"

"Came here for lunch with the family. Was a little disappointed- we had a reservation for 1pm, but didn't get seated until 1:25pm. Our waitress was nice, but a little pushy- at the end of the meal she kept pushing us to get dessert, despite us declining a few times. She then "jokingly" encouraged us to add on to the tip (not too classy). Meals were ok..." Read more

"This steakhouse is just so-so and pricy by most standards. The "pineapple/coconut" bread was hard and old tasting. Salads were limp and skimpy. I got the Mahi with a Caesar and it was not fresh at all, tasted like it was caught last week. The steak and pork chop were quite good. So maybe we just ordered the wrong thing. Key lime pie was good but over..." Read more

"We've been here a number of times and it's a hit or miss with the food. There have been dishes we've ordered that have been phenomenal and then others not so much. The staff have been great and attentive each visit. Great waiting area but gets a little crowded depending ok what time you visit."

"Ambiance was great. Service was wonderful as well. They served bread with cinnamon butter. The bread was really stale and the cinnamon butter was disgusting. I just don't think cinnamon and butter go well on bread together. We ordered the seafood platter for appetizer and it was really good. I had the surf and turf skewers with vegetables and risotto. It was..." Read more

"The food is great. The location and atmosphere is great. BUT, Carrie, our waitress for the last two visits has been terrible. We will go again but will make it a point to ask not to be served by Carrie. A combination of a bad attitude and just bad service from her reduced our satisfaction substantially. Owners need to know that the "total" experience..." Read more

"Beautiful view on the water with an outside table.  Server Courtney was especially nice.All the drinks for our family birthday party were good, (except for the Cotton Candy).  And for my special request, the server / bartender put together a drink just for me with vodka, sprite and a splash of cranberry juice and grenadine. Very good! Brusche..." Read more

"I went for my second time and the food is okay, the ambience & scenery is gorgeous everyone I was with enjoyed their food but for some reason what I got the last time (fish tacos) and this time (pineapple chicken) was just okay but that won't stop me from going back!"

"The service was fantastic (Mark as waiter). Salmon came out undercooked the first time but the manger came out and apologized furiously. Other dishes were hot and delicious.

(P.S. Ask about Gary the bird)"

"Would like to start out that our server was top notch. She was on top of her game all night. Other people in our party come here frequently and enjoy the food. My wife, daughter and I thought the food we ordered was decent, nothing that got our tastebuds in a frenzy. If you're looking for a restaurant with a great ambiance you'll get it here though."

"Beautiful view, definitely the best part.  Food over priced and just average.  Left hungry after a $20 lunch and I'm a light eater.  Will not be going back, I eat out for the food, the view should just be an added bonus."

"Really cool place. The food was good not great. I loved the lobster chowder. The outdoor seating and views are amazing especially during sunset. Staff was very friendly.  Cool walk out the pier to the actual restaurant makes a very unique experience.  

We will be back!"

"Although the food is OK and waitress service very good, do not trust the establishment to honor any coupon. My experience last night was ridiculous. After ordering the Fish Bites appetizer and mentioning the Free Appetizer coupon, the MANAGER refused to honor it because it was for a free LARGER order than the happy hour SMALLER order that we received. Abs..." Read more

"Gosh. This used to be our favorite place in town. And now it's just, meh. I don't know what happened. Feels like they kind of just gave up and started serving food straight out of the Sysco Food truck. They still have a great view and it's a nice place to sit outside and grab a beer. The patio area is dog friendly, so I will give them an extra star f..." Read more
