The restaurant is costly, and even though there weren't many customers, the food took a long time to arrive. The taste of the food did not justify the high cost. The salmon I ordered was overcooked, and the flavor of the rice was unappealing. The only positives were the view and the atmosphere. I don't recommend this place; there are many better restaurants in the area if you want to enjoy a good meal and don’t spend so much.

April was our server and she was astute, attentive, cordial and on the ball. The ambiance with the steel drum person was excellent; not too loud but certainly loud enough for us to appreciate the good music. Great idea. The view from the patio dining was everything we were expecting and more.

Outside is beautiful but make sure when you make a reservation you ask for a little shade or you could end up in full sun at 82 degrees. After about 15-2o minutes we were uncomfortable. Made eating not very enjoyable. We ate quickly to finish and get out of the sun.
