I had lunch there yesteday and the food was excellent. I had a lunch special mahi mahi sandwich and their crab fritters were excellent. The view of the water was great. And the service was excllent. I'll add this to my "come back to" list.

This was a wonderful waterfront restaurant. The food was amazing. I ordered the garden salad with the grilled fish of the day. It was amazing with their house dressing. I ended up buying a bottle of their house dressing to take home. Even the kids meals were good. This is a must stop restaurant.

The low off season prices are gone, but the good breakfast and the friendly prompt service are still there. We enjoyed sitting out on the porch by the water.

We had breakfast here- ordered the seafood omelet which was good but nothing memorable. The grits were gret though. They tout their friendliness which was ok but didn't see that as outstanding. It go back though.Their breakfast is a few bucks more than Batts Grill.

Don't know if we caught them on a good night, but based on other reviews probably not. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Food was very good and cooked exactly to order. Nice to see some different menu items and preparations vs. most local places. Wings were excellent, even with only two sauces. Prepared sauces (cocktail, island, Bimini) were very... More

Beautiful setting right on the sound. Good came very fast unfortunately the service was terriable. For a place that makes its money from recommendations I would think the waitstaff could be more friendly. The servers acted like it was a hardship to wait on the tables. I spoke with a few other tables during our visit and they felt the... More

The food and service are wonderful! The prices have gone up considerably since the last time we visited. The food is still the best around.

The food is ok, but this is a very expensive place. You are paying for one of the worst water views on the island. It is also the only bar/restaurant you can dock at, so they can charge high prices and get away with it.

Some of us had seafood, some had burgers. All were quite satisfied with their meals and I loved the grilled Mahi.
