Great for scenic views
Good for special occasions

An American Fine-ish Dining establishment where the menu is full of fancy comfort food with a French twist. Think dinner party hosted by your Aunt who summers in Provence and says Paris like “Pear-REE” – but also drinks beer only from a can with a koozie.

The Fancy at Hotel Lucine sits neatly at the intersection of 10th & Seawall Blvd - we're about as close to the water as a hotel can get without high tide lapping at your bedside.

My first visit to this restaurant and I was wow’ed!!! Everything we ordered was amazing. My husband and I split the roasted oysters, the mixed greens and the eggs benedict….. we had to make ourselves stop eating. It was all perfection personified! I can’t wait to go again and try some of the other dishes. Also, the live music added just the right touch to the atmosphere, not too loud. We really enjoyed this talented local musician. Not to mention all of this and an incredible view of the beach!

Thanks for visiting us! We're thrilled to hear that you and your husband had a wonderful time at our humble little beach house. It's great to know that you loved our oysters, mixed greens, and eggs benedict along with the music by Louis Morales from Dem Roots. We can't wait to welcome you back for another memorable brunch!

Really loved my late, solo dinner at The Fancy! I’m pregnant, so I ordered a zero proof margarita with a Tajik rim, and also requested it spicy. The wait staff accommodated my request with delight, and it was PHENOMENAL. Probably the best spicy marg I’ve ever had. I’m having another as we speak, at the bar! :) Food-wise, I ordered the Caesar with seafood croquettes and every bite was absolutely delicious. The croquettes were buttery and crispy, and the Caesar salad was perfectly dressed, every bite was tangy and well balanced. I followed up with the Crab Cake small plate, which comes with a red cabbage slaw. This is my new favorite crab cake! Buttery, filled with lots of crab, perfectly moist throughout and incredibly crisp on the outside. Dressed with a green remoulade that accentuated the flavors perfectly. The slaw was sweet and not overly bitey. 10/10! I can’t wait to come back for a date night with my husband soon!

Thank you for such a glowing review! We’re so happy to hear that you had a wonderful solo dinner with us—and that we could bring a little spice to your night with that margarita! It’s awesome to know you loved every bite, from the croquettes to the crab cake. We’re already looking forward to welcoming you and your husband for that date night soon! Until then, cheers to more delicious dinners (and spicy margaritas) ahead!

Food was EXCELLENT, Flavors on point. (Tuna too small and a little bit pricey, but delicious. Caesar salad was HUGE. BUTTER CAKE OMG) Light too down for my preference. Service OK, but not excellent (need to improve, specially server). Busser was kind and attentive.
