"Some food was more 3.5 star but overall good, beautiful scenery! Gulf red grouper was OK, risotto was served cold (on purpose lol) and I was NOT a fan at all. It wasn't listed that way, I definitely prefer it warm and was disappointed. Was told the lobster mac and scallops were great, decent apps"

"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!"

"Excellent atmosphere and views. Food was good but not as hot as it should be

Happy hour every day and we made good use of it as we waited a little too long for food.

Views make up for it"

"Great location to dine. We were able to catch the sunset. They have a nice variety of options. We had a party of four and the fave was the sesame glazed salmon."

"One of my favorite lobster rolls in the area.It's sometimes hard to differentiate a good restaurant with a good day. My husband and I were having a day date without the children, so it was a great day, but I think the restaurant is also deserving of top marks. We were here on a Tuesday at 11:30 a.m. when it opened so it wasn't busy at all. I..." Read more

"Went there today for lunch. Food was great, server was friendly. The kitchen was delivering food slowly as there was a rush. But..it was worth the wait. A great place to eat and meet friends"

"Our family of 6 ate here and overall it was ok. The ambiance and water view is a "10" but the food was just ok. We ordered Smash Burgers, Calamari, Balsamic Chicken, Salmon Salad and a Shrimp Po Boy. My hubby said the Remoulade sauce on the Po Boy was non existent and the bread was hard. My Balsamic Chicken was tasty but the rice was dry and hard. Th..." Read more

"Beautiful view and ambience. We were given happy hour menu arrived at 5:45 but didn't get service until 6 so the waitress wouldn't honor the happy hour prices. We order salmon bowls, chicken bowl and beef salad. They were very good but the portions were very small. My beef salad had only 4 tiny pieces of beef. We also ordered spinach and artichoke appetizer..." Read more

"Great ambience on the water. My husband and I went here for dinner on Sun. Our waitress was helpful with the menu, attentive, and wonderful. As far as the food... We got the fried green tomatoes as an appetizer. I don't know who on here recommended these, but they were not good. I'm from GA and know about my southern food, and my husband who's a FL nativ..."

"Generally, I do not give low scores, but this food was not very good. The steak salad was the best thing we ordered, and if that's what you're in the mood for, do it. Anything else, nah, just watch the sunset instead and have a drink."

"Greatly appreciated the golf cart ride across the dock to restaurant entrance with my 90 yr old mom. We were promptly greeted and seated. Server took our drink order, then food order, server came back a few minutes later saying they were out of the shrimp & scampi dinner (it was 6pm) we substituted a dinner salad. Food was delicious and there is a very nice..." Read more

"Beautiful Waterfront views. We enjoyed the second floor dining. Everyone but me loves seafood so they were very pleased with the menu. I would have preferred a few more, non seafood choices. However, they did have a fried pork chop special that was delicious. This was my second visit in a week. I was invited twice for different celebrations and I was ver..." Read more

"Will return.

On the water with nice views. Good service and fresh food. The bathroom is really clean.

We went at an odd hour - 3:40. We were boating but have to coming in early due to the wind and rain.

The grouper taco, Caesar salad and salmon bowl are all fresh and yummy."

"Family was in town and this was chosen for dinner after a day at the beach. Staff was polite and attentive. Yay for that. The view of the river was nice for dinner as we watched the sunset as well. The one downfall was the food. It wasn't bad, mind you. It just wasn't noteworthy. All the dishes were presented well and the portions were a good size. They just..." Read more

"I met two of my step daughters there and had some appetizers and drinks. The drinks were decent and the truffle fries were average. The crostini's with the blue crab dip were stale tasting. Also, it was quite loud for an afternoon crowd, though we were seated close to the bar."

"We came for a late afternoon meal. A short walk (or a complimentary  ride on a golf cart) past docked boats. Beautiful view outside - the water is gorgeous, and although it was hot, they have several big fans moving the air. We got the fish spread, and both agreed it was delicious. It comes with chopped onion and capers on the side. He had the fish t..." Read more

"Great atmosphere and food. I had the fish and chips. Was expecting chips as what's served in England, but it was homemade potato chips. They were great, so I can't dock them on that point. The portion size was great also. Had to take some home for later."
