    We came in here while waiting for our table at the nextdoor restaurant, Frisky Dolphin. They are associated and can bring you your food here, or your drinks to the other location. It took someone a long time to come check on us. While we were waiting, we noticed a big hole in the ceiling tiles which they hadn't bothered replacing. It was slightly disconcerting, but we knew we'd be leaving soon. We ordered a few drinks, and they took a while to come out to us. By the time we had one or two sips, our buzzer was finally buzzing. We paid quickly and left to go next door. We did order some more drinks while at the neighboring restaurant, but I'm not sure I'd come back in here. They do have plenty of seating, and some arcade games for those interested.

    its very great location and fantastic redfish taco and redfish meal. Fried fishes were very crispy. Malea served us with her beautiful smile and friendly suggestions she made our 2 lunches perfect. Well done thank you!

    Redfish Sandwich, blackened with smoked Gouda cheese

    Got the blackened Redfish sandwich and tots. Menu says it comes with American cheese but I substituted smoked gouda. Really good. Large piece of fish that hung over the bun quite a bit and was cooked really good. Nice chunky tomato slice. Server Amber provided excellent service. Overlooked a marina. Indoor and outdoor seating. We sat outside, which was nice and shaded with a nice view. I liked it and will be back on my next trip.

    The wait staff was very friendly. We were seated right away. The appetizers of fried onion rings and loaded tater tot's were quite good. For dinner, I had the redfish topped with shrimp and Gouda cheese. It was so so. Being from New Orleans, I am kind of picky about shrimp and sauces. The fried shrimp had a heavy batter but did taste very good. The three of us enjoyed drinks, appetizer and entrées for $89. I thought it was quite reasonably priced. For a beach restaurant it was worth going to. The back patio is excellent for drinks and watching the sunset. The "bushwhacker" is similar to a mudslide and worth the calories. Our friend, enjoys Champagne but did not know what to order. So the bartender created a new drink called the MaryLou in her honor, Champagne with a splash of a strawberry Lacore.

    yes this place was purty good. the food was cheap and it was honestly a vibe in there. would recommend. service was a lil slo but it was busy asf so it's ok

    The only thing good in this meal was the oysters on the half shell.  The Frisky Flounder was smothered with cheese, way to much.

    Dive bar, but great food and service! I would recommend the view from the back of the marina.

    Some good, some great, and one or two "swing and a miss"…read more Service overall - excellent! Bar area and staff - excellent! Mains for the 4 of us at dinner... ...Fish & Chips: generous, delicious fish, slightly thick batter, but very crispy; Chips...sorry and soggy, limp and lukewarm (miss). ...Beef Pasties: delicious, steamed veggies...ok ...Crab stuffed Grouper with shrimp: Very good, flavorful, nicely seasoned. Served with small Caesar Salad. ...Shepherd's Pie: Winner of the night. Absolutely spot-on - excellently seasoned lamb with peas and carrots, topped with delish mash. However the accompanying Yorkshire Pudding - "cold" and rubbery.....please do not serve this again to my British heritage chef wife! (Likely held too long, perhaps steamed to warm, definitely not fresh-out-of--the-oven.) Desserts (we took home in 2Go boxes): Key Lime pie....nah. A bit short on that tangy lime flavor we expected. Sticky Toffee Pudding....yes, yes, yes. Tender, moist, sponge with host of flavors and topped with an (optional) thin caramel sauce. Really excellent sans sauce. Side note of sorts: We had a few minutes to sit in the bar area before our reserved time to dine. What a great experience! If we lived closer, I'm fairly certain this would be a regular haunt of ours.

    Stars given for view only. Server was quick to bring beverages and take orders, then a very long…read morewait for the food. Saturday brunch items so there was nothing complicated or specially requested as the menu was limited. My BLT on fried bread came out warm, no crispness on the "fried bread" that seemed more like a pita that had been warmed on the flat-top. Pathetic sliver of discolored and withered lettuce had to be removed. Bacon was good. Tomato had no taste. The mixed fruit as a side was OK. Not impressed with the food and will not return. Also, please be aware that they have a "sharing fee" as well as the credit card usage fee. It would be nice if diners could counteract these charges for the wait times, less than stellar food...that no one would be tempted to share anyway. Do yourself a favor...go to McGuires downtown.
