   Excellent service and location right next to the Caloosahatchee River. Beautiful sunset. Food was very good but pricey. Not an inexpensive evening!

   Service spotty. Nice pp but took about 10 Minutes to get someone to offer a drink for me. I was waiting for my friend to arrive. Once we had finished meal , had to ask for check. No one came to us for 15 -20 minutes. The food came out timely. And was good. Server nice

   The salmon was excellent! Two in our party had the ribs and they were a bit tough. One person had the filet, ordered medium rare, and it was overcooked.

   Our meals were fantastic. I had seafood etouffee, with shrimp, Cobia, and uh, 2 other kinds of fresh mild seafood. There was a plentiful assortment of seafood bites and diced vegetables which the sauce integrated seamlessly and perfectly. I also had the very good fish dip. It was served as a spread alongside plain crackers, hot sauce and grilled lemon. My friend had fish and chips. She said it was the best she'd ever tasted. We all had something different and everyone enjoyed their food. Service was fast, sometimes intrusive to conversation. However overall I was happy with the service. There is a big bar and a giant gift shop that makes up the lobby. You can dine outside next to the river. The limited but varied menu changes, perhaps with the whims of the excellent chef. I wish I could have the chef cook for me every day. This is not a gimmickly touristy spot. The chef could please everyone a very high end restaurant.

   You really can’t beat the location or views. The service was friendly and prompt. Food was good but not excellent and perhaps a little overpriced, but worth it for the water view.

   The food was excellent like always. We had a great server-Faith. The hostess should be a bit more welcoming.

    Great location to main downtown area and Oxbow offers beautiful views of the water. The service, cocktails and food were excellent. Don't sleep on the fish dip!
