   We enjoyed a beautiful lunch by the water in a glider. It was perfect. We had privacy and were shaded from the sun. I loved the romantic atmosphere and it was fun to watch the boats go by as we dined. Our server helped us build our own seafood plate which was out of this world! I can’t wait to go back!

   Seated in a corner by the dirty dishes dumping area. Tables are very close together. Three ladies seated next to us. Waiter comes over and works both tables at the same time for drink orders. We don’t drink alcohol so he walks away without taking our drink orders. We call him back and order iced tea. It was terrible fountain iced tea. Get shown the ordering tray for the stone crabs. Order the crabs. Get served the crabs. Eat. The hyper waiter popped in a few times. Finished, got the check and left. Had to wait 15 minutes for our car to be brought to us at the valet. We got the crabs we wanted but wouldn’t go back.

   Opportunities= Parking is a nightmere even with valet, dirty menus which was not expected from an expensive restaurant(details) and even though the Keylime pie was good it was frozen and you tell it was aged in the freeze by the, "freezer taste" Likes = Our server was great along with the views with the food being good..

   We were seated right away for our 7:00 pm reservation. Waiter was good. He came over quickly and took our drink order. Answered our questions and we ordered the small seafood platter. That arrived pretty quickly. It was good, fresh seafood. We ordered our dinner and waited a bit for the food to arrive. Once served, the food was good. My issue with this place is that it is chaotic. The parking is only valet. The noise level is out of control awful. You can't hear yourself think. The food is ok, but nothing to brag about. The stone crab (which is what people go there for) is much to expensive to order the all you can eat. In my opinion, this place is not what it's all hyped up to be. We were in and out in an hour because they don't let you sit and relax. They come and take your plate so quickly. I wasn't even done, I was just relaxing and my plate was gone. CHAOTIC! It took them a good 10 minutes to retrieve our car because it was parked off the property somewhere else. I did not like that.

   The noise level was unbearable. The food was okay, rather pedestrian and nothing to write home about. GG's down the block is a nice quiet place with extraordinary food and top notch service. Skip Billy's and head down the street to GG's.

   I have been to Billy’s over many years. I will go back again if only for the Stone Crabs. Food is always amazing but does come at a hefty price. I ordered the large claws and it was $200 for all you could eat. They were great. My only complaint and it is consistent each time is that the waiters there can be quite intimidating. They rush you though the menu and decision making. A little more warmth would make for an experience as great as the food they serve. Definitely a place for a special occasion but be ready for your waiter.

   We sat in one of the little waterfront swinging tables. It was very cute. Our cocktails were amazing. We loved the appetizer of chilled Stone Crab! Our entrees were fantastic and the chocolate mousse dessert was sinful! The wait staff was very kind and professional. Thank you!!

    A beautiful view while enjoying great food. We never miss this place anytime we come to town. Its a must try for anyone that's never been. Staff was very friendly, all the way to the valet guy.
