    The food was ok for a saint valentine menu . But the halibut was super salty and we waited a lot for it to be delivered. Not complaining as a last second find

    This was a horrible experience! We waited even though we had a reservation for 35 min only to be seated for bar seating and never notified. We sat at our table for 20 min before we saw anyone with empty water glasses. Terrible! The ambiance around us was off..everyone seemed distracted and unhappy with all the delays and no one had food! After over an hour we decided to just leave! We’re locals and are Hilton people and were completely baffled how a Hilton property would allow this to happen.

    7pm reservation. Sat at 730. First course 8:15 pm food was good till main course. Food was given to wrong table. Then my medium rare filet was closer to jerkey( way over done). Worst part 18% gratuity included. Definitely didn't deserve 18%.

    By far I had the best Margarita in the space coast area here. We sat at the bar before dining and the margarita was amazing! We were also very happy with our dinners. The bartender explained all their mixers are made by hand and are not premixed and you can taste the difference. On the downside my husband’s beer tasted great but seemed flat with no head at all. Service was excellent.

    An excellent meal, menu was refreshingly small and easy to work through, great advice from our friendly and helpful server. Non alcoholic cocktail was (cucumber gimlet) was delicious and a tropic old fashioned was very enjoyable. We over ordered - the sharing flatbread as an appetiser was what tipped us over the edge (although it was good). My wife made her main up from 2 appetisers, the sprouts (excellent) and the wings (great flavour but slightly on the dry side in style), and I had the pork belly with scallops that was superb. Overall price was about right for the location and the food quality.

    An OK place but not good for single diners. Seems odd since it is in a hotel and should be used to dealing with single diners. Disappointing.

    The food and service are exceptional but the outlay makes it less than enjoyable if it’s cold outside. There’s a door to the outside bar that is used as the in and out THROUGH waves. It was especially cold for Florida when we went, in the upper 40s and we were sat directly across from the door. It was like an arctic blast every time it opened. If you go when it’s cold, ask for a high top, it’s further from the doors. The food really is worth it. 😉
