    The grouper bites were just ok. The water is gross and they don’t sell bottle water so that was disappointing. My shrimp bowl was good but thought it would have been bigger shrimp. Overall, the food was ok the service was great although our food took longer than expected.

    We always like coming here for dinner and drinks. Last nights meal, other than cold French fries (but we were outside), everything was great. The fish n chips will feed a family, the peel n eat shrimp was delicious, chowder great as usual, and very good sandwiches (we had a smash burger and a Philly, the ladies split a fish dinner). View is spectacular, and even though it was a bit chilly with a steady breeze, they brought two (2) propane warmers by out table. Top notch overall, and highly recommend!

    Einfaches Lokal in spitzenmäßiger Lage direkt am Wasser, unbedingt draußen sitzen, wenn's ein bisschen kühl ist, werden Heizpilze aufgestellt, man kann wunderbar den Sonnenuntergang bewundern, das Personal ist sehr freundlich und schnell, reichlich Parkplätze direkt davor, perfekt.

    The fish tacos were salty, even extra lime couldn't offset the intensity. The food was mediocre. It was served with a smile and impatiently friendly "are you done yet?". We were still eating our entree when we were asked about dessert and about the check 6 our total time was less than 90min with drinks, apps, entrees and dessert. Nothing including the view was memorable.

    Can’t believe we didn’t come here sooner! A bit out of the way, but so worth it. The atmosphere in the restaurant was definitely waterside themed, and the view in the outside area was great (the sun sets just right for the view). Food was delicious, drinks were potent and yummy, service was spot-on and attentive, and the key lime pie was outstanding! The extra bar looked fun and again great views! We highly recommend this venue! PS: having OpenTable was a nice bonus, we had a great table reserved for us! PSS: note to OpenTable mgmt: get more venues in this area signed up!!
