I can't say enough about the great staff and food here. My son and daughter-in-law arranged to have a small family celebration for husband's and my 50th wedding anniversary. The Pier was the perfect venue All our guests commented on the top notch service and delicious food. The staff was absolutely fantastic. John worked with my son and daughter-in-law on every detail. It's now a few days later and I am still getting comments from our family and friends saying how impressed they were. If you're looking for a venue for a celebration, give this place a call. Thank you to the staff at Sharky's and the Pier. You made a memorable celebration for us.

Indifferent about this place. I neither love it or hate it. Apparently, I am in the minority because the times I do opt to come here, it is usually filled with non-stop action. First off, there are several ways to get into the place so you might end up entering into a web of various activities occurring. Once you emerge from that, you need to decide if you are dining at the "pier" or the "cafe/ restaurant". The set up is very chopped up, and maze-like. Anyway, if it's a lovely day, opt for the pier side, since they have a beautiful deck, and the bar opens up to the outdoors. If you are looking to play any of the video/sports like activities, watch a game, opt for the cafe side. I still manage to confuse the dining options when checking in with the hostess. It's almost as though one might need a mini-tour of the place before committing to which side suits you. Once seating is decided, it's time for the menu selections. This is where I take a detour with my impression of the place. To me, its basic food. No real frills. No must - haves, no uniqueness to boast about. No real dissatisfaction either. However, If I can recommend anything, it is to make arrangements to be part of the pier crowd during the air show that takes place nearby. Fabulous view, and great entertainment while enjoying a cocktail or two as jets soar past overhead. No regrets with this one.

Great views from the deck! Great food reasonably priced. Specialty drinks tasty but a bit pricey. ( no prices on drink menu). We are definitely coming back many other items to try!

Even the tortilla chips were stale.

Not recommend. Nothing about this place was good. The menu was not cohesive and all over the place. Nobody in our party of 3 finished any of the food including our appetizer. I feel ripped off.

Nice greasy pepperoni pizza.

This place has the same menu as Sharky's but an infinitely better atmosphere. I ate at Sharkeys one night and the pier the next. Being here on business this was the convenient option as it was within walking distance from the Marriott. I consulted on the thing to get as far as food and pizza was the common option for both places. I took the bartender up on the pizza option, I was not disappointed. New York ish style pizza with really good flavor. The service was top-notch and all the waitresses and bartenders were on it. If I had one criticism it would be the lack of a competent manager to keep things running smoothly. People waited for someone to seat them and people waited at their table because no one told the waitress that they were seated. I'll go back the next time I'm in town but hopefully they have a decent house manager when I do.

Purple Rain & Tropical Itch (yellow beverage)

Last night I went to The Pier for drinks, apps, and the Thursday night music. Every Thursday night during the spring-summer season a band will play from 8-10pm. The bands are usually local and include in a wide variety of musical selections. Onto the food & drinks. I had a Purple Rain drink, very sweet to the taste, and recommended by the waitress after discussing what I like. It was awesome. I also had the wood fired wings and skillet red pepper dip with "pizza chips". The food was excellent as always! The wings were full and juicy, while the dip was sizzling hot being served in a skillet. I will always recommend this restaurant - especially on Sunday's for BOGO wood fired pizza & bottomless mimosas during brunch.

Wow. We went here on a whim and were pleasantly surprised. Located adjacent to regular Sharky's, The Pier at Sharkeys gives you a seaside feel with the deck seating, breeze, island decor and great music. For our appetizer we ordered the giant pretzel with four dipping sauces. Very good. For my meal I ordered the lobster mac & cheese with pasta. It was out of this world. My wife ordered the crab stuffed shrimp. You can check out the pictures below! My two small children split a woodfired pizza and it was very good as well. The only downside, and this might be nitpicking, is the price. For an appetizer,three adult drinks and the three entrées, the bill came to $74. With tip, we got out just under $100. A little pricey but that's okay. We will be back for sure. The food, atmosphere and service were terrific.

Busy intersection, no windows, and a front door that doesn't work... but don't let that fool you. Entering through the patio entrance, the outdoor seating is an oasis somehow perfectly separated from the busyness just beyond the sidewalk. We opted to sit inside on a humid day.. simple but fitting! The menu is only tapas, but the small plates don't contain small flavors!! We love to split tapas with friends, so we ordered a table load and went all in. We selected: - Street Corn Dip - no notes. Gooey, well seasoned, and plenty of fresh corn! Abundance of chips, more than enough! - Bruschetta Flatbread - every available inch covered in fresh tomato, lacking in the balsamic glaze, but still a fresh, refreshing bite. Honestly, this is a huge tapas, 8 pieces and easily a meal on its own - Headkeeper Toothpicks - THESE ARE THE SHOWSTOPPER!! Clever concept, perfectly executed! Crispy tortilla wraps loaded with chicken, peppers, onions, and gouda. And DOUBLE dips!! - Banh Mi Eggrolls - large tapa with a big eggroll for all four of us. Crammed full of toppings and well seasoned - Balsamic Marinated Grilled Vegetables - great variety, one of each veggie, but a little too much oily sauce (Pro Tip - we cut these up and put them on top of the bruschetta - perfectly paired!!) - Cauliflower - large portion, almost half of a head of cauliflower, dripping with truffle oil, but soooo tender to eat - Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes - only 2, but packed with crab and delicious sweet-chili & coconut-lime sauce! - Lo Mein Bowl - another tapa that could be a full meal, tender beef, but the seasoning was just off for us And of course... DESSERT! Thankful to go on a double date where one from each couple wants to split desserts too. Why not try the best part of the menu too? Vanilla Crème Brulee - a perfect sweet blend of vanilla and custard with a scrumptious layer of brûlée Strawberry Scooter Crunch Cheesecake - decadent swirls of strawberry through the cheesecake and a crisp layer of scooter crunch all over Tell you what! The sauces and pairings show how ingenious this culinary team is... and looking at reviews, the menu rotates and I'll have to try some of the fun items that I've seen from other seasons!

We sat on the patio and Jojo was our server - she was such a sweetheart. I ordered a gin and tonic with infused watermelon cucumber gin (delicious) and the chicken italiano. Chicken was seasoned perfectly, pasta side was incredible, roasted vegetables picked from their garden were delicious. My coworkers got the filet, wagu beef tacos, and the seasonal sweet and sour salad. Everyone left satisfied and happy. So much so that we not only recommended all of our other coworkers to go here, but we came back two days later. When we came back, we ran into our coworkers at the bar. We sat outside on the patio and had another incredible meal once again served by the delightful Jojo. I had many more gin and tonics with infused gin and the wagu tacos. My coworkers got crab cakes, the chicken italiano, and filet. Everyone was once again satisfied and happy. It came to closing time and Jojo locked up the front door, turned on the patio lights, and continued serving us. She let us stay out back talking and drinking for 2 hours past closing. It was such a delightful night and I cannot recommend this place enough. Service was incredible, ambiance was wonderful, and the food was delicious. My coworkers and I came from out of town but we all expressed the desire to come back, have another incredible meal, and see Jojo again. It was only after the first time we went that we realized the important work Major Stokes does for the community. The sustainability efforts and work they do with nonprofits is extremely commendable and only made us love them more. I don't write Yelp reviews, but this place was so exceptional that I had to.

The pickled fennel on the gambas was an interesting but good flavor, complimenting the aioli and shrimp well! We liked the fried artichokes too; we got a ton since they also came with the trout. The anchovies and mantadito were also good; not too salty like anchovies often are. The bread was good but nothing special. The trout was amazing! It was some of the crispiest fish I've ever had, and the meat was still tender and flavorful. The salsa verde on it was also great; I definitely want to try and make this at home now, although butterflying and deboning the trout would be time consuming. We went to celebrate a birthday, and they were all super friendly. They brought out strawberry sorbet, which was also excellent. It was sweet but not too much, and the cucumber and mint made it very refreshing. The service was also excellent (5/5); someone was always around to refill drinks and see if we needed anything else.

We ordered again acting like she didn't just take our order 2 minutes ago. I actually ended up changing my order and asked if they had a "house" pilot grigio. She said yes. She asked if we were going to order food and we said just drinks tonight. 5 minutes pass and she brings a large appetizer to our table. I said we didn't order this. She asked if we talked about it though . We said "no" we were never ordering food. I was so taken back by this experience I wanted to cash out after our drinks. I headed to the bar and asked for our bill. We were going to leave cash and leave because the whole situation was very uncomfortable. (Thinking 20 would be enough for the drinks and tip) We finally get the bill and the house wine is on there along with the beer. The total was $37 for 2 drinks. How can a house wine be $17 for a glass? As we left, the whole situation didnt sit right with me. I called later to ask how much a glass of house wine was and the person that answered stated $9.

Upon entering we saw a "Happy Birthday" sign and were greeted by two lovely servers. A first bite was served while we waited for our cocktails . It was a chunk of very sweet watermelon on a wooden coaster. Next came some delicious bread with a leek butter. My daughter added the 4 shot cocktails to our experience and they were fun! Jell-O shots elevated quite a bit. Our appetizer was chef's choice which was burrata with grilled eggplant, peaches, greens and baguette. All so good! We enjoyed some extra cocktails from the menu, a blackberry mojito and a white Negroni with the appetizer. Then the entrees came along. I got the wild mushroom ravioli and she got the Faroe Islands salmon. This was the only part of the meal you had a choice in and you have to advise them ahead of time what you would like to eat as the main course. The final course was a creme brûlée serves in a 4 ounce mason jar. All in all, excellent quality of food and service with reasonable portions. We did not leave hungry. The screened in dining pod itself was very comfortable. It was a pleasant summer day so we did not need the fan or the heater which was available. They are nestled in the woods and sunshine peeks through the trees for a most serene dining experience. I commented that even if it were raining, you would be comfortable due to the design of the pods. There is a wide overhang so the rain wouldn't bother you coming in through the screens. If you are looking for a unique way to celebrate or just want to feel one with nature, this is an excellent option to consider. I highly recommend trying one out!

On the plus side , the treetop room made for an intimate and cozy dining experience . Ambience - 9. Our server was pleasant and efficient without being intrusive in any way - Service - 9. First let me say that I have no issue paying hundreds of dollars for a quality meal that is unusual, creative, innovative, tasty, - one that each course brings WOWs and other high praise. The 4+ course meal didn't come close. The Amuse bouche was good , but nothing special. The appetizer consisted of shrimp ceviche in a lettuce wrap along with a 1 inch wedge of watermelon - tasty , but nothing I haven't experienced elsewhere just as good or better. The salad - a split romaine topped with a slice of watermelon radish ( tasteless) a sprig of fennel, and shaved parmesan cheese . The dressing was home made but tasted like it was straight out of a bottle. Creative ? - Hardly ! For main course ( which must be selected days in advance ) - my wife's salmon was a generous filet on a bed of parmesan risotto ( gummy ). A very small amount of glaze that was not recognizable. I chose the Sous vide pork tenderloin. - A single 4 inch by 3/8 inch medallion with a fruit sauce served over a serving of tasteless smashed potatoes . Side dish for both meals was 3 sliced carrot pieces steamed and again tasteless. My meal arrived barely luke warm and over cooked - I assume it was plated and waited for my wife's salmon to finish. Dessert was crème brulee ! Plain creme brulee. To charge hundreds of dollars for a fine dining experience and then have the chef literally sleep walk through the entire menu and meal is unforgiveable. Our local culinary school provides a better culinary experience and menus at one third the cost of the Treetops .
