We sat outside and watched dolphins in the Banana River. Service was quick and helpful and waitress always made sure our drinks were full. Reasonably priced and plenty of parking. There are enough choices you could come back again and again.

Very disappointed. Three of us ordered the bisque which all of them came out cold…. I was very nice and asked for it to be reheated. They came back lukewarm. I did not complain. My first drink was great the second they gave me was a rail vodka and I asked for grey goose. I said I didn’t care for it and asked for wine instead. I got major attitudes from the bartenders that were originally nice…. Just a sad experience bc I wasn’t trying to be difficult. But I want what I’m paying for!!

Best Grouper Sandwich around! Fas and Friendly staff and the view of the Banana River is amazing. Well worth the visit.

It was a beautiful day right around lunchtime when this group of three girls were hungry. The restaurant was very busy and there was a bit of a wait which was expected at that time of day. Our server Tracey was a joy. She was working so many tables, but was courteous, friendly and attentive. We all ordered the grouper sandwiches and they were amazing. Just melted in our mouths. The view was nice too and we saw dolphins frolicking in the water. A great place to stop as you’re heading east, and almost at the beach.

We had eaten next door but decided to try to go last minute to see the sunset. The reviews for food were so so and the food is so so. We ordered a shrimp cocktail and seafood combo which we ordered blackened and includes grouper, shrimp and a crab cake. The fun part was the view and the fun music. The big shout out is to CJ who was our server. He was quick to greet us and friendly. The table next to us (a large group) left and as he was cleaning, the ticket that the customer signed flew into the water and sadly we watched it float way. I wanted to jump in for him but my better judgement told me not to.. ha. Anyway, I am not sure how that works with the business but if he had to account for the ticket like it seemed, he still kept a great attitude the rest of the time we were there. We tipped quite a bit extra to try to help make up for the lost ticket. Even if he didn't have to pay for their food, the amount of the tip was long gone in the water.. Bottom line, go for sunset and ask for CJ to serve you!

The menu is limited because of Covid - other restaurants have over come. Waitress was nice but could not speak English well enough to take our order. The restrooms are absolutely unacceptable. They advised happy hour - but it’s only at the bar - changed from last visit. The bar is flooded with regulars who sit there for hours. The food is substandard to that of other local restaurants. The only thing this place has is a view. It needs to be updated. So much potential. So sad.

Very mixed experience. Waiter was very attentive and pleasant. Weather was questionable, so we got a table on the deck. Very nice location. Informed us right away that they were completely out of all draft beer and bottled microbrews. No IPAs. (Weekend was crazy busy. It was Monday evening) We ordered Bottled beer (whatever) and then a Pinot Gris, which was very good. My husband’s Grouper salad was very good. Nicely grilled grouper on a Caesar salad. $14.99 My teriyaki shrimp was terrible! A bed of what looked like Rice and six or seven small shrimp drowning in sticky sweet teriyaki sauce. $22.99 I think. Wish I’d ordered grouper salad.

I had the sunset combo at it was very good! Amazing service, very good live music. The food was fresh and very good.

Great experience with excellent food, exceptional service and fantastic views. Indoor/outdoor dining area. Dolphins playing in the water were an added bonus.

Good location on the water, nice waitress. Food was mediocre (shrimp cocktail on a very hot day should have been on some ice) but all of our drinks were terrible. Pretty but watered down to undrinkable.
