The queso was from a can and not memorable. My daughter had the chicken nachos which also had this cheese but they were just ok. The steak quesadillas and the birra tacos were the highlights followed by the black beans. They were excellent. Great experience all around and perfect for a quick eat.

They have Mexican Coke, a large variety of juice and some smoothies, beer. Staff were friendly and it was raining hard outside as they got a 2pm rush. I was waiting for the rain to let up myself, but hunger overtook, I walked 200-300 feet to the crosswalk in a thunderstorm. Air was on and felt cool. As I was a bit wet. About 25 people had smiles on their face as the food is fresh and fabulous. I am leaving in the morning, or I'd stop back. Seating for about 65-70. 2 tops & 4 tops. Enjoy... I certainly did.

While at the beach we started to get hungry so me and my princess decided to grab an early dinner after a day of long travel and the hotel receptionist said " go eat outside at the sandbar!" Brianna was our server and was amazing ! She made my little one a Shirley temple which she loved and kept the cold beers coming for me . We ordered shrimp cocktail for appetizers and wings then I decided on the grouper sandwich with a side salad and fries and mini cheeseburger sliders and fries for my little one. We enjoyed our view of the ocean and stayed after we ate and got to see dolphins swimming near by. We will definitely be having lunch here a few more times before we leave. Fish is fresh caught and so good I'm already thinking about dinner lol ! 10/10!

We had drinks to start; my 20 year old and 16 year old had soda. Wife had a Coroner and I have the spicy jalepeno margarita. All was great! We did not get apps, but there are lots of choices. For mains I had the Birria tacos with onion rings. One daughter had the same. Great taste, but if I had to do it over I would get a side of salad or coleslaw as it was a lot of fried on my plate. That said, finished it all! My other daughter had the chicken Cesar salad and loved it. Chicken was very tasty. My wife had the grouper basket. She thought it was tasty and hit the spot. Service was not bad but not great. Just not friendly. Overall a great stop. Be prepared you are outside and if the weather turns you are on the hook. Also, no reservations so first come first serve! Go. Here.

When we arrived we had to be put on the waiting list but it didn't take longer than 10-15 minutes before a table was ready and we were invited to head towards the back of the establishment to review the menu and order drinks., I had the orange creamsicle vodka seltzer. It was very good and refreshing. There is a small bar and then there are about 12ish tables. We sat at a table along the farthest part of the dining dock. The service was great and they all work as a team. Very friendly. We ordered the peel and eat shrimp (cold) - very delish. Cocktail sauce was great. Then both me and my hubby ordered the catch of the day. It was wahoo. I ordered grilled while he ordered blackened. It was fresh and perfect. It comes with 2 sides which I chose yellow rice and veggies. On the way out, we purchased a rash guard shirt for our son who did not come with us on this vacay. The bathrooms are single stalks right outside the entrance to the restaurant. You walk through the store before seeing a hostess. Highly recommend this restaurant. Fish is amazing and as fresh as it comes.

In fact the only thing I could taste was the blue cheese and a piece of bacon every now and then. Edible if you like the cheese. Lobstah Mac N Cheese 2 of 5 - It pains me to rate this low as it should have been good and the presentation was an experience. However, the flavor was absent from this dish. The cheese was watered down tasting without a cheese flavor or anything else. The lobster was also absent of flavor and since the cheese was lacking it then I could only rely on the pasta being cooked well. Service could have been good, but the music system was so loud I couldn't hear her most of the time and she was right next to us. She was nice and moved us further away from the live player, so I'll say she tried her best to accommodate for that. Overall experience 3 of 5 and probably mostly cause of the service trying and the beer.

Even being a local though, I'd certainly visit this restaurant. It sits right on the marina with views all the way around. Unfortunately for us it was raining during our visit, so we weren't able to get a taste of their vast rooftop. Looks like something to be enjoyed though! Here you'll find Mexican-fusion type eats. Which was lucky for me because that's my fave and we went on my birthday! I opted for a spicy marg, which was on happy hour special, and that hit the spot. Love when they do a tahin rim. As for food, my husband and I split the ceviche (holy sh*t was that refreshing and amazing I'd order again 10/10), and some fish tacos (also very good). As for dessert, my one bday request was key lime pie and this place delivered that request! Titled the 'margarita key lime pie,' it's infused with with reposado infused lime. An absolute delight! Our server was so sweet, the vibe was good, and we'd definitely give it an overall thumbs up.
