This place was the so incredible, from the hostess being so kind, to the servers being so accommodating, to the amazing view. I HIGHLY recommend getting the grouper bites they were the perfect amount of crispy, flakey, and buttery. My boyfriend and family got grouper sandwiches and they said they were the best they've ever had. Our server was so sweet and accommodating as we were a party of 6. It also started to torrential downpour halfway through our meal but she did her best to make sure we were taken care of after everyone was rushing under the tiki huts to take coverage. All in all, this place was absolutely incredible, I highly recommend.

What an amazing place to be during sun down. We came by to meet up with some coworkers, and it's the best place to have fun with an amazing view. The drinks were amazing and the food was great. We were lucky since it was busy because it was their 5th year anniversary! Congrats! Teeny bit upset since we didn't win the raffle, but that's just bad luck. We really enjoyed our meals and loved our waitress. I forgot her name, though

I love this place! The ambiance is amazing, service is really good and the views are beautiful. You really come here for the ambiance and view. The food is good but sometimes it is not seasoned well, it can be bland at times. The grouper tacos are a solid choice, every time I order them, they have been really good. Another solid choice is the catch of the day fire grilled. I always substitute the rice and beans because they lack flavor and get the yuca fries ( these are super delish). The best time to come here is at sunset, views are amazing. I will be back very soon.

If you like hanging out by the bay, beautiful sunsets, and live music this restaurant is right up shoreline The food here is really good. I highly recommend the Jerk Wings, Tuna Tartare and fried fish bites. The drinks are really good; try to get there early because it does get busy and seating at the bar may be limited. We went on a Thursday night with a party of 7 and it was a good time. Lauren was our waitress and she was cool, down to earth and professional. Thanks Lauren for all that you do!

This place has won so many awards I'm not sure why it doesn't have six stars The weight is ridiculously long, but that means that it is super popular! While you are waiting you can walk around that area, chill on multiple Bermuda chairs, and still grab drinks from the bar. They overlook the bay and a bridge that has a gorgeous sunset. Once sunset happens, the place clears out a little bit, but not much! The food is smaller portions for appetizers, but incredibly good. The wait staff was ridiculously polite and had to deal with a lot of different people but never broke their stride or smile. I would highly recommend the daily catch pan seared. We devoured it. I'm a little upset I didn't get more pictures but it was so delicious and we were so hungry that we attacked our food as soon as it was put down.

Came here after a day on the beach. We got here around 530pm. Parking was tricky but we were able to find 2 spots. We had about a 15 minute wait. We were seated outside by the water. It was sunny so bring your sunglasses. I ordered a Miami Vice to start. It was so hot it was more melted than slushy. Still fantastic. I ordered the grill shrimp tacos. Very fresh and delicious!

This place is an easy 5! The overall rating is in the 3 range because of a few 1-star reviews, one of which being because the frozen drinks weren't frosty enough. Another was because of bad parking. This is somewhat true but there are no parking fees and you will find a spot and just have to walk 50 yards--and that's only at peak times. The views combined with the music and breeze is insane. You will be hard-pressed to find a better spot if you're looking for atmosphere. The staff is right on the money. Friendly people working hard. The drinks are good despite being a little expensive but that should be expected for this kind of location. The Mojito is popular because it's a beach restaurant/bar. If you drink (responsibly), I would take advantage of this because many bars around the country don't serve Mojitos because they don't have the mint. The salad was superb and the Island Chicken and Fries was a solid meal but not amazing. From what I overheard while there, food is mostly good yet not amazing but, in my strong opinion, it's more than made up for by vibe, scenery, music, service and Mojitos. Bonus is that you might see manatees and/or dolphins. Overall, highly recommended!
