"If you are going for the view. Save yourself the money. Go buy Captain Ds and have a picnic at the beach. I like good food and good experiences and don’t care much what they cost. However I don’t like to pay $300 for lobster tail that could be from Ryan’s steakhouse. And service that was nonexistent. To top it off manager came over not to apologize for the a..." Read more

"Location is great with lovely views. The service was good; thank you Ed! But, the food is really bland. Had spinach and artichoke dip appetizer which was bland and a mousse-like consistency, rather than the lovely-melted cheesy dish that I am used to and the toast points were not crisp, they were hard. There was not enough marinara served with the Calamari a..." Read more

"Overall a great experience. Service was a little slow to refill waters and sodas. I had the lobster roll which was amazing. Smash burgers and lobster Mac n cheese were a little dry. Cookie dessert was amazing! So was the toffee bunt cake. Great views of manatee river. Will come here again!"

"Trista our waitress was amazing. Very knowledgeable about the menu. Recommended the calamari and it was excellent. Had the Caesar salad with shrimp and it was not over dressed. The homemade dressing was spot on."

"We visted the restaurant on New Year's Eve. We had a reservation for 12:45pm. We have eaten at your restaurant on several previous occasions and we enjoyed the food and of course the views. Yesterday our visit was anything but good. The great view of course didn't change, but the food should be an embarrassment. I ordered the eggs Benedict with crab cake..." Read more

"Food was wonderful! Incredible views and our waitress was fantastic! We had a party of 12 and at the end of the evening noone had anything negative to say in regards to the food! Definitely pricey, but food was good."

"Really good food, a bit pricey, but reasonable given the atmosphere and setting. A good place for a slightly more than casual meal. It's not suit and tie, but certainly not jean shorts and flip flops either"

"Gulf Coast sunset on the Manatee River, not a place to leave your food unprotected from birds, but that's entertainment. Lovely table service and outdoor space heaters to take the chill off after dark. My Grouper Tacos were overflowing and delicious, w/ Rice and Beans done just right. Appropriate for casual dress or dressy dates all comfortable here."

"The restaurant has changed in the last year with new menu items and not for the better. The quality of the food is poor and the prices have increased, which would be fine if the food was good. It appears the restaurant is skimping, cutting corners, and serving “fillers” that are cheap to buy and make in mass quantities to dump on plates. It feels like the re..." Read more

"The fried green tomatoes have a nice taste, but need to be cut thinner. Waited over an hour for the main course. A house salad (way too much lettuce), crab dip, and a grouper sandwich. The kitchen was backed up. When it finally arrived, both was luke warm at best. The manager was apologetic and took off one thing. Disappointing overall."
