The food was absolutely delicious!
While our food was good, we didn’t experience the best service tonight! We sat outside and saw our server (Bryce?) maybe 4 times in an 1.5 hours!!
Fantastic meal and view.
This is probably the best restaurant around. We've had a great service. The food is great even if for the price range we really think it could have been better.... also... when your bottle of bubbly is open since too long... don't try to sneak it to the customer... we had to return ours. The pianist give a great high end ambiance inside... outside they could target a better quality of entertainer but it's hit or miss in this business. Fresh food , great service ... not cheap but a lovely place!
Golden hour does half the work for this place—but thankfully, the food and drinks carry their weight too. Perched right on the water, this spot leans hard into atmosphere: warm sunlight spilling across the table, a soft breeze, and that slow, unhurried rhythm that makes you want to linger. It feels like the kind of place where time stretches just enough for another round. The drinks are clearly a highlight. Served chilled (the ice bucket isn’t just for show), they’re crisp, refreshing, and perfectly suited for the setting. Whether it’s a light white wine or a citrusy cocktail, everything seems designed to complement the heat and the view rather than overpower it. You can tell care was taken—not overly fussy, just well-balanced and easy to enjoy. Food-wise- a coastal menu—simple plates that don’t distract from the experience. Think fresh, clean flavors: seafood, light salads.. It’s the kind of menu where nothing tries too hard, and that’s exactly the point. Service, is a relaxed setup- laid-back but attentive enough to keep glasses from going empty. Overall, this isn’t just a meal—it’s a moment. You come for the view, stay for the drinks, and leave feeling like you got away with something. Perfect for a sunset toast, especially if you’re in no rush to be anywhere else. Thanks so much for a wonderful evening celebrating my husband's birthday.
The food was beyond amazing… And the reason I know this is because our server Ryan made the most amazing suggestions!!
Love your restaurant and atmosphere. The service was the worst . Melissa our server was not helpful in showing us how your unique menu on how it works. I questioned the bar options as it did not show what options in drink menu she made a comment can’t you see the full service bar over there. She was not joking she was just rude .I should have asked for another server at that point but was hoping she improved but her poor attitude continued. We were also unaware you could not order from menu and she acted like we were stupid . She was not attentive and actually rude to all 4 of us. We ordered drinks and apps but decided we will go to another restaurant to eat because Melissa was not making our dining experience pleasurable. I will return but certainly request not have her as a server. I do not want anything I just wanted you to know Melissa was not an asset to your business yesterday . We did tip her the usual 20 percent but we are in the industry so we usually tip more.

The view of the gulf is beautiful. Great location. Service was rushed due to being very busy. Food was pretty good. Expensive. Did not feel I got value for money. Very loud. I was there for my spouse’s birthday check was $199 for the two of us.
Nenad was excellent
Beautiful restaurant with amazing staff! Seafood so fresh!
Celebrating my great grandmothers 99th birthday with brunch!! Our server Christian was very professional and attentive, ensuring our large group felt welcome and well-served. A massive thank you to Christian for making this legendary celebration so seamless and special!
Ate here on vacation at recommendation of locals. Wow. Service was outstanding, our waiter was most knowledgeable waiter I have met in 40 years of dining out as an adult!! Food was on point and delicious. Drinks were good. Get a window seat and enjoy the sunset you will not be disappointed.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant, and the experience exceeded my expectations from start to finish. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel genuinely welcomed. The service with Nenad was attentive without being intrusive—every need was anticipated, and any request was handled promptly with a smile.
Nenad was an amazing server! Beautiful restaurant! Love it!!!!!
Keith is a great server
