The food is ok, the service is great and the location is almost perfect…read more This is a pool deck and stage area, lots of cement and terraced levels fenced off from the pool but this also blocks the ocean and beach views. All the cement makes it a bit loud but also hot because it soaks in the heat and radiates it back out all day. This is fine in the cooler months or if you have pool access as a guest. There is an inside dining room too but why use that when its so much nicer outside? The food was good, not great, and like most tourist areas a bit over priced for the quality. I'm not saying it wan't good because everything we tried we liked. Only it was nothing to get too excited about for the higher prices. Honestly you're paying for the view and the nice outdoor seating. Note: The closer parking lots are for condo/hotel guests only and they will tow you away. If you're just coming to the restaurant you must park across the street. When we went there was plenty of of available parking but it was a very hot day in the high 90s and high humidity so by the time I parked and walked over I was already sweaty and uncomfortable. On a normal day it would be no big deal for me, but if your with people who cannot climb a steep driveway or do a long walk then I would drop them off at the front door and then go park.

Love this place!!! My husband and I discovered Spiaggia…read morewhen we first moved to the area and it has become our favorite go to neighborhood restaurant. The ambience is so cute and inviting, and the food is delish! My favorite thing now is their girls' night on Monday nights. There is always a yummy special dish and it's a great way to start the week. We especially love the bartender, Makana, as she goes out of her way to make us feel appreciated. She always has a smile for everyone, knows what her customers drink, and definitely goes the extra mile (even when she is slammed!) to make sure everyone is taken care of. Thanks for helping us start our week out right!

Awful bar pizza. Legitimately bad…read more Ordered six pizzas, only two (cheese and cheese + sausage) were passable. The other four (especially the Prosciutto) were terrible. I love prosciutto on pizza and this was just thrown on top and was basically in spoiled, inedible shape when we opened the box. Whole pizza went in the trash. What threw us off further was that this looked like Neapolitan or at least wood-fired pizza on Ristobar's website. It's nowhere close. Even the crust was bad. Two stars and not one because the Caesar salad was OK. Won't return.

Service is always good, some meals better than others but we never leave hungry or disappointed! They have an extensive menu and we started with the boneless chicken bites and Jalapeño cheese skewers, both of which are amazing every time we visit. For dinner we branched out this time and got snow crab legs, salads, a chicken sandwich, and a lobster pasta which came with an entire lobster! Keeping in mind it IS bar food, but everything was good and no one walked away hungry. Cocktails were also fantastic. There is a reason we always stop in and it's because they are consistent with great service! Kudos
