    Hostess seemed irked that she had two human beings to tend to when we arrived. When seated after several minutes, it took close to ten minutes before our waiter got to our table (cafe was only half-full, for context…). Wife’s drink order took 18 minutes. My salmon was EXTREMELY undercooked. When I asked for chicken as a replacement, the waiter hemmed and hawed about how it would take a while to cook. This place evidently gets by on two things: 1) the ocean view, and 2) the online-ratings leniency afforded by pasty-skinned Northerners who are so smitten being in a warm locale on the beach, that they overlook the apathetic service and blah food.

    We dined here twice during our trip, once as a group of five and then as a group of ten. The location on the water is great, the food was very good (though menu is a bit limited), and the service was excellent. Each visit the servers were very friendly and accommodating. We would not have gone back a second time if the first time had not been a hit. The pricing is, not unexpectedly, a bit on the high side for what you get, given the location on the water, but all together a very worthwhile time. I also want to note that the restaurant was very flexible and so friendly in working with us as our party size and timing changed several times - we were able to jut text back and forth which made things even more efficient.

    Food was very good but overpriced. Service was slow , no air conditioning if you are looking for that. Wish we went for lunch instead.

    Ok. It is hard to rate food as each persons experience was different. My swordfish was dry but then again i have never had swordfish so not sure if it is supposed to be dry? Curry sauce was excellent w rice and fish together Sons filet- asked med rare but boy was it rare. He didnt finish it and for 48.00 w no sides your chef should be spot on Wifes mahi salad was great Daughters salmon was great as well Service was excellent and right by the water was awesome.

    We were sat a table right next to the bar, so it was louder than expected. The food was okay considering the price point. Ambiance was missing because of the bar right in the middle of the restaurant

    Thanksgiving dinner with family ... was excellent. Served family style ... a platter of turkey and stuffing per every 2 people. Turkey was very good, all of the sides were delicious ... plenty of food. Decorated with fresh flowers - the food looked beautiful. Loved eating outside on the water. Perfect meal.
