    I chose to take family out for Thanksgiving dinner this year. The Water Bar is a place that I enjoyed during the summer. The food was delicious and the people delightful. We enjoyed our time there and felt comfortable. We plan on returning for Christmas and making this a tradition for our holiday dinners

    I don’t think I would order the crab cakes again, pretty $20.00 for 2 little cakes. The entrees were excellent!

    We went today for Thanksgiving. The holiday menu was way overpriced for what you received. It was ok, green beans were basically raw and servings were small for 69.99

    Service was a little chaotic. Food spent a lot of time sitting in the pass through. One dish was different than what the server told us and he had an “oh well, I was wrong”attitude. They didn’t mark the Open Table reservation and we received a no show notification from Open Table. Food was expensive for what we got. I wasn’t very impressed.

    Salmon salad was exceptional. Fish tacos were very good. Excellent, attentive service. Room setting and ambience are beautiful. Prices are reasonable for seafood. A hoe run!

    Love the rustic ambience but can see where it might get loud. There were only a few tables full it got fuller as we were leaving. The waiters were very attentive.
