We each chose the wings appetizer, with Mom's "as hot as ketchup" and mine in Buffalo sauce that was reasonably spicy. The wings were decently sized, cooked properly and delicious. My beer was cold and tasty as well, chosen from a list of three dozen or so taps. Burgers went past us to the outside patio area (a view of the parking lot) and they looked good. I'm sure we'll be back. [Review 1604 of 2025 - 2181 in Florida - 25152 overall]

Not sure if we ordered the wrong things or if we just didn't like it... The calamari, which was highly recommended by the server, was interesting and very wet.... It was smothered in a mango/mayo salsa, which I can see how some people like but it was just very different than the traditional calamari we were expecting. I really enjoyed the salmon dish that I got but the dish my partner ordered had chunks of half cooked/cold fish, which made him a little sick. Service: phenomenal! The staff were super kind and attentive. Ambiance: beach fine dining! White table clothes but people were also dressed casually (some folks wearing tshirts and flip flops) Overall, it was a fine experience.

Stopped in while on vacation and unfortunately it was just okay overall…read more I ordered the crab legs with broccoli and mashed potatoes. The crab legs were pretty dry, and some of the gills were still attached, which was honestly a little unappetizing. The broccoli tasted like it came straight from a frozen bag and wasn't really seasoned. The mashed potatoes were decent but nothing special. Honestly, I've had better crab legs at restaurants back home in Michigan, which was a little disappointing considering we're visiting a coastal area. The drinks were okay but a bit on the weak side. Service was slow, but I do want to give some grace there -- our waiter was also the bartender and seemed to be handling all the tables near the bar by himself. He was very friendly and clearly working hard, just probably stretched way too thin. Overall it wasn't a terrible experience, but the food didn't really live up to what we were hoping for while on vacation.

The food was still amazing and the place looks the same with minor changes since the storm. The disappointment here is the front end. They hired a very childish boy as a hostess. Flamey and rude. Very dramatic and rather than trying to help people ( such as locating a restroom) he spews a very long story about where it is instead of pointing to it two feet away. He was talking and laughing about a customer when I came out. I presume me I only needed to wash my hands. He's lucky I didn't tell him off but I didn't want to let him ruin our evening and have my husband hear. He's ( Anthony) a little punk though.
