Plenty of boat parking. Place was packed and now I know why. First time I didn’t mind having to wait an hour for a table of 7. Food was great! Service was great! Everyone loved it! Will be back! The clam strips reminded me of the olden days of Howard Johnson’s clams. French onion soup was perfect for the chilly boat ride. Fish was fresh. Some friends had the crab cakes and said they were the best crab cakes they have ever had.

This was our first time to this bar. Great music, views & friendly service. Food looked amazing. Staff was busy but definitely taking care of the table for how busy it was. We stopped in for cocktails only. They even provided food/ drink service if you arrive by boat. Great atmosphere! Highly recommend

Went today with my girlfriend for lunch and we were delighted by the great food and Exceptional service!!!!! We beat the lunch rush by arriving at 11:30-by the time we left-there was a wait. Can’t wait to go back with my husband!! I especially recommend the scallops appetizer-sweet, tender and delicious!!!!

12/31/25 - Dad took us out for lunch. I ordered the Redfish again but this time I went with fried. I ordered French fries again. The redfish came out blackened and with cole slaw. NO COMPLAINT! The fish looked perfect as soon as she sat it down. The cole slaw had some pineapple in it, which really have it a nice twist. Once again, we looked at the fish and walked along the dock. 12/27/25 - Fantastic! We had a delicious meal right next to dinner huge fish swimming around in the backwaters. The crab cakes were really good. They are cooked perfectly. My blackened fish was very good as well. We'll be coming back soon!

Down in Florida for vacation. It’s cold down here currently which is a bit of a bummer, so I took myself out to lunch to lift the spirits a bit. I stopped at the right place! The waitress was super friendly and attentive. I got a fried grouper Reuben with a side of sweet potato fries and it was fantastic! The waitress of course twisted my arm to order the peanut butter pie (Not really. She just asked if I was interested in dessert and mentioned they had it lol). That too was delicious! Give this place a shot. It’s right along the water, too!
