    Our experience at Covewood was good, would’ve been great if we had a different server. He was polite, but the manager and the gentlemen who I’m assuming was the busser checked on us more than our server did. I was not happy with the mojito I ordered, so I asked the “busser” if I could swap for a different drink. He said no problem, and our server brought out the replacement. There was no apology, no checking on what was wrong with it. When we left, the server pretty much just took our money and walked away. No “thank you for coming in” or “have a great night”. Service from the manager and “busser” was fantastic, but service from our server (pretty sure his name was Stephen) was less than average. Tried several times to call and talk to a manager but every time it went to their answering machine.

    Service was excellent. We had Stephan, our waiter, was warm, helpful and friendly. Receptionist was also very pleasant and welcoming. food was good, but prices were too high. Chairs and table were odd and inappropriate for eating. It was uncomfortable. Manager regularly circulated but did not stop/greet/engage. He was ineffective. Sorry to criticize him. He seemed nice but his fly-bys were almost comical. I offer this more as constructive criticism than a true negative.

    Fireworks, food and Fiesta Island. Sooo, if the timing is right, Covewood is a nice viewing spot for the Sea World fireworks, for free and without the crowds. The entree selection is excellent. The chefs do good work. The mussels, citris salad and halibut are what we shared family style and is plenty. Wide selection of whiskies for the connaiseurs out there. A little short handed at times but the crew did their best and we appreciated patience all around. With the food, setting and outdoor seating, certainly time well spent.

    The vegetable entree was excessive salty, the potatoes with the halibut were runny instead of mashed. Service was poor - slow and not attentive to our needs. - no plates for the mussels.

    We came for their Thanksgiving 3 course meal which was mediocre at best. It cost us $330 for 3 meals and 2 drinks. I'm really disappointed. We were hoping for something special given that it was a holiday and unfortunately were met with insanely overpriced, half way decent food. I would not recommend their holiday dining experience.

    We attended thanksgiving dinner here in 2023 and it was a fantastic experience. Because of this we decided to attend in 2024 and even bring friends. Unfortunately the 2024 experience was far from expected. There were no traditional sides. The turkey was served three ways and was dry. Overall it felt very overpriced and not worth the cost. The silver lining is that the drinks were delicious and well done.
