Everything that could be wrong, was. Our server, although sweet as anything, had NO training and knew NOTHING about the menu. We had to open our own champagne bottle because she didn't know how! 3 of the 4 in our group had seafood, which was NOt GOOD. The grouper was GREY and the snapper was very over done. The 4th... more

I ordered a shrimp cocktail for an appetizer. When it finally arrived, it looked like the tiny shrimp you would get at your grocery store in a giant party platter. I had to send it back because the shrimp was WARM... yes.. WARM shrimp cocktail!! The main entree's took over 35 minutes to recieve after our appetizers. Of the 6... more

We went to Baxter's on Monday evening when many restaurants on Amelia Island are closed. We were delightfully surprised (especially based on the last two reviews) with the delicious food, warm and friendly atmosphere and great service from the waitstaff. My husband and I enjoyed our meal and feel we received fair value for the price. If you are on... more

We stopped because the sign said something about the "best steak in (the areas)." But when we were seated and saw the menu, we realized that the steep prices precluded any steak dinners. We ordered the fish sandwich ($11 apiece) and a child's dinner ($7). Oh, and a crab cake appetizer for $11. OUTRAGEOUS. They brought us TWO little crab... more

Just ok. My wife and I made reservations and had high hopes for the "voted #1 steakhouse in Amelia Island". Highlights: - A reservation landed us a booth right next to the front door, right next to the take out/check in station, right next to the bar. - Everyone dresses business casual, except the wait staff, who wear t-shirts. (???)... more

The town rolls up the sidewalks around 9 and finding somewhere to go can be challenging. Baxter's is open until midnight, with a limited, but very delicious menu. I was impressed by the food, the service and the friendliness of the staff. more

We (parents, husband, and 3 yr old daughter) ate here last week while on vacation. My parents had been here before with good reviews. But after this experience will not be returning. We were seated in a back booth where apparently the a/c vents did not reach. Service was slow and the waitress forgot our appetizer. The meal overpriced and... more
