Great service, outdoor dining.

Awesome staff! This is the place to be ?

Great food and great service my favorite place in Englewood!

Place has really improved! Great food, reasonable drink prices. Worth another visit.

Very underwhelming food. The decor and menu were both awesome, so we assumed the food would match. It was so bland and boring. It was also SO EXPENSIVE. The prices listed on TripAdvisor are at least $5 less than the actual prices. $18 for an appetizer of conch fritters? We will not return and do not suggest eating here for dinner. Everything we had needed to be rethought - taste was so off.

Stopped to eat outside on the patio after a day at the beach. Service was great, food was good around the table. We enjoyed our time!

Everyone enjoyed the meal. Good portions and our waiter was super nice. Love the Alfredo! Only bad was the limited parking as we had to park across the busy street. First night here for the week and it was a great start!

We went to this restaurant two nights in a row. The first was for happy hour, though we ended up meeting up with friends and ordering the ahi tuna appetizer which was fantastic (so fresh!). The happy hour was fun-unique way to price drinks (you pull a tab on a ticket). As a bonus, the bartenders were fantastic (Jay!) The next night my husband and I went for dinner. We both had mahi dishes which is our favorite. Mine was the special (mahi caprese) and my husband got the fresh catch prepared to your liking. Both were top notch in freshness, flavor, and presentation. Would recommend to anyone and we cannot wait to return!

Our fishing guide told us this was one of the two best restaurants in the area, we ate at the other on yesterday, so we gave it a shot. It was 6 o’clock on a Tuesday and the parking lot was full, we expected a wait, but the hostess said there was a table inside or outside. Score!!! Victoria was just the nicest most upbeat server, she made several recommendations. One of the weekly specials was a roasted lamb shank with mashed potatoes. Normally I wouldn’t consider lamb at a beachfront seafood house, but she made it sound so good, and she was right! My wife enjoyed her chicken salad, big portion, lots of stuff in there like candied pecans and slices of fresh mozzarella. Five out of five stars all around.

Arrived at 6 expecting a wait. Greeted and seated promptly. Our waiter Nick gets a 5. No rush and answered all questions. Definitely order a rum runner. Only knock, tuna nachos were tuna and accoutrements served over half a bag of Tostitos. Entrees arrived as ordered without complaints. After dinner we Moved to the bar for a drink and a sunset. It’s been a while but we are glad we came back and definitely will again…
