Good atmosphere, nice waitstaff. Peach salad was good. Veggie cassoulet tasted fermented so we sent it back. Crab cake good.

Spotted here on a whim and it was super quiet. Mind you we showed up at 5 on a Monday. The staff were very friendly and the burger was great. Would come here again

Trip Advisor comes through once again. Great restaurant inside the ICONA Diamond Beach hotel. Food was very good. We ordered the fried calamari and it was cooked like it should be, not overdone and rubbery. Dinner-wise we had Shrimp & Spinach Pasta, White Clam Chowder...and Mac N Cheese with Blackened Chicken. The shrimp dish was very tasty…large meaty shrimp. The clam chowder was rich and flavorful. Mac n cheese tasted good as well. Blackened chicken, although ordered, did not come out of the kitchen. Made it right by providing it and not charging us for it (unsolicited)…appreciate management’s handling here. I won’t comment on the service…we were one of two tables in the whole place, and a new server was being trained, so grace given. Drink prices were a bit steep, but tasty.More

Attended Easter Brunch with son and daughter-in-law. Best brunch we have been to for years! Food was all delicious, excellent variety, omelet station, fresh fruit, and waffles to die for! Service was great! Matt the host was so kind and pleasant, checking on us several...times in a busy dining room. Server Chris was knowledgeable and just attentive enough. AND we had the pleasure of meeting head chef John. Congratulations to the entire staff for a beautifully presented and served brunch with gorgeous beach backdrop! We can’t wait to return!More

We had our work luncheon today at Coastal Blue and the staff are so welcoming and friendly. Our server, Justin, was so attentive and kind. He really gave us spectacular service. The food and Beverage director, Matt, was so knowledgeable about the history of Icona...and Diamond Beach it added a special touch. Highly recommend the Icona.More

First and foremost, the staff is amazing here !!! Everyone is friendly and greets you with a smile and lovely suggestions; whether it be on the food or any cocktails. I wanted a spicy margarita and they even made me one fresh on the spot,...although it wasn’t on the cocktail menu. I was so grateful for them to want to accommodate to our every need. Every bite from our amazing appetizers to entrees were exceptional ! This place is a must go. I am already salivating for their NY strip steak next! From the relaxing atmosphere of the outdoor dining, the inside is just as beautiful. If you haven’t been here yet, now is the time to go ! Don’t sleep on this amazing spot right on the beach!More

My wife and I went for breakfast on a Friday morning. I ordered The Apple and Cinnamon stuffed pancakes. What I got were three dry pancakes with cold applesauce dumped on the top of the pancakes. I had to ask the server three times for...a beverage before I received it. Would not eat here again.More

The weather was great, the place was stylish and clean and convenient. I would say that the menu could have had some more seafood options, but what we ordered was pretty good. I was hoping for speculator though. The best part of the dinner was...the friendliness and spirit of our wonderful waitress, Ariana, who was so attentive and eager to carry out any whimsical request or answer any concerns or seemingly odd questions we may have had regarding food or cocktails. We would love to visit again.More

We visited on 7/25/22. Our server Arianna exceeded all expectations in terms of friendliness and attentiveness. We loved her! The food was a true disappointment. My husband ordered Fish tacos which were not much better than Ms. Paul’s. We received 4 ounces of wine for...$14. My shrimp cocktail consisted of significantly overcooked i.e. tough shrimp. We realize everything is different because of Covid; however, quality should not suffer-especially with higher prices for food/service.More

This place has it all!! Once you arrive make sure you got everything you need from your car because there will be no need for anything else, they have every accommodation you need! If your looking for relaxation, delicious food, gorgeous views, great service, delicious...cocktails all in one, I highly recommend Icona at Diamond beach. We had the luxury of staying here last weekend, and it was like going to the Caribbean. Our hotel room was clean with a gorgeous view of the ocean. We enjoyed cocktails at their Star bar, some delicious apps and listened to the live music play, of course a little dancing too. Next day we had an excellent breakfast at coastal blue (great variety of breakfast options) then sat pool side for a few hours before heading to their beautiful private beach. You can order food and beverages 🥂 on the beach, no need to bring anything with you as they have all the accommodations you need. We enjoyed their peach salad, crab and shrimp cocktail, chicken sandwich and tried their pizza. Everything was fresh, and made to order! After an amazing day on the beach we got dressed, went back to the beautiful coastal blue dinning room for Chef John’s dinner menu and it was EXCELLENT! Service was top notch, food was excellently prepared 10/10 for this place! I can not wait to go back hereMore
