"Fantastic food and beverages. Extremely personable and attentive server, Mark. Had the fish and chips lunch special with coke slaw...delish! Margarita was the best i've had in a long time. Sat outside by the rivers edge....lots of boats and s scenic view. Definitely worth the drive from Orlando."

"All 5 of us had wonderful meals and service. I highly recommend this restaurant. It's set at the end of a dock jutting into the Manatee River in Palmetto amidst a yacht club. The sunset made it extra special and as the night quickly cooled down they lit the gas fireplace in the center if our table and brought an outside heater to warm us up. Highly recom..." Read more

"Visited this establishment today for a drink and when I asked the barman if it would be better to buy a bottle of wine instead of individual glasses as there was three of us having wine. He said that because it was happy hour, it was better to buy glasses. Consequently, we ordered two beers and three wines and he charged me $22. Considering that the beer..." Read more

"How could someone not appreciate dining while looking out on an expanse of water, boats, and beautiful scenery - while encountering welcoming people. Bar-seated diners raved about the spareribs with home-made chips. The female server at the bar-seats was very attentive and very welcoming. The entire Marina/ Harbor area appeared fun, filled with different mus..." Read more

"I really enjoyed this restaurant today, for a late lunch. We ordered from the luncheon menu, I had the Cuban Sandwich and Coleslaw, Sister had the Chicken Caesar Salad. Very good, nice presentation. Our server Lauren was amazing, with just enough presence. Also, it is very clean inside. That is SUPER important to me!"

"We stopped for lunch and found the Yuengling Battered Fish and Chips Basket to have fish that was chewy and tough and the coating was also tough. The fries were very good though. It took a very long time for the order to arrive and maybe it was over cooked? I had the Lobster pot pie which consisted of chopped cold-water lobster, vegetables, potatoes, shallot..." Read more

"The food is delicious and the view of the bay adds so much to the atmosphere. I got the lobster pot pie, and I was pleased that it actually tasted more like lobster than pot pie. They don't skimp on any of the dishes. If you're willing to pay a little more, you won't regret coming here."

"Every Wednesday from 3 'till close, you can buy a bottle of house wine for $9 and take home what you don't drink...if that's the case. What a deal! I always take a visiting friend here to see the sunset over the Manatee River from the deck and enjoy a great meal here, too.So many fish choices! You can't go wrong with any of them. I have never had..." Read more
