It literally was brown, tasted like root beer and the limes were old. I was told it was agave, if so, it was the worst agave ever. The food is overpriced and not worth it. Got a wedge salad ($20) and again, not great. I'm not exactly sure how you mess a wedge salad up, but they did. While the view and location is beautiful, there are way better places to go. Also, I watched the woman next to me send her drink back too, so I was not alone.

We started with stone crab claws, oysters Rockefeller and ahi tuna nachos--all fresh and flavorful. For entrées, the shrimp tacos were delicious, and the award-winning shrimp and grits definitely lived up to the hype. The Greek salad was also fresh and tasty. Our server was very polite and attentive. Great option for families too, with a kids menu featuring crowd-pleasers like chicken fingers and fries. There's also a fun little gift shop inside to browse, and plenty of parking, which makes the whole experience easy and enjoyable.

Hard to beat that. They've got both indoor and outdoor seating, and there was even live music on a Monday which was a nice surprise. Food was solid. We ordered the Nashville hot fish, grouper Reuben, grouper sandwich, and a dozen baked oysters. Everything was good, but nothing that really stood out or made me want to rush back. The only downside was the pricing. A lot of the grouper dishes are listed as market price, so we didn't have a clear sense of what things would cost going in. Totally get that with fresh fish, but the final bill felt higher than expected and not necessarily reflected in the overall experience.

If you're not a guest or resident, you have to park across the street and walk down the side, walk and around to the beach entrance to get to the tiki bar.

They asked for my credit card as soon as I ordered and put a $50 preauthorization right away before I even received my order. The nachos were just a bowl of nachos with a small container of bland salsa. There was no cheese or any other toppings. We finished our drinks and boring nachos and left. I wouldn't bother going again.

I'd recommend this for friends or family trips to see treasure island and the beautiful dolphins that live there. Not to mention the big boat has a bathroom on board so it's great when you're drinking a lot. I'd definitely go back.

Annmarie was our wonderful server and even brought me an in-house made sauce for my salmon burger. It paired well with my salmon sandwich she recommended. My personal bartender was Tanya.
