    Overall I gave 4 stars because at first it was very loud due to a table of very loud and obnoxious people. Once they left the ambiance was much better. The food was just ok for me.

    We sat outside and enjoyed a spectacular sunset from the porch. Our service was top-notch & we really had a great experience. My cocktail (Hugo Spritz) was delicious & even tho the wine-by-the-glass menu is not extensive….there is something for everyone. My pecan/grouper with potato cake & green beans was only outshined by the gigantic chocolate brownie dessert. I highly recommend this upscale & unique Destin gem.

    We had a great dinner in a beautiful setting on the quaint outdoor patio. The Wild Mushroom Pesto Risotto and Grouper Vince entrees were both outstanding. We also shared a side of Fried Brussels Sprouts with Balsamic Glaze and Bacon—delicious! Highly recommend and definitely looking forward to returning.

    We sat without water for too long. Crab cakes were delicious! My wife had a caesar salad and added grilled chicken for her meal. The chicken was borderline undercooked and the flavor was not good. We didn’t eat it. My fillet was delicious, but way undercooked. I ordered medium and most of it was rare. The server never came back to check on us so I ate most of it and left two large rare bites. Once he came he didn’t say anything. I wasn’t going to complain but I was hoping he would take the opportunity to revive himself. He offered to box her chicken and we told him it wasn’t good. I think if we had a different server we would have had a better experience. It was just too many issues for us to want to go back. We canceled our other reservations we had there.

    Got seated outside and the view was amazing! Server and host were attentive and polite. Food was just okay. Snapper itself was well seasoned but what it was served on was under seasoned. Shrimp grits - shrimp overcooked and Grits just lukewarm. The smoked tuna dip was good though 😅
