    Unfortunately, we were there during the reduction in patrons and alcohol because of the Covid-19. It was confusing for the waitstaff with the on again off again sale. The food was good as was the service once the confusion was over. We sat outside on the balcony and it was gorgeous. They also took ya earlier than our reservation time which was a nice surprise.

    The service was great, and the atmosphere is lovely, but the food was absolutely terrible. Everything was completely bland and overcooked. Even just some salt would of helped. We didn’t even take our leftovers home because it was SO bad. Definitely not worth the money. I contacted the restaurant about my experience and they never responded. I will not be going back.

    We have eaten here many times and we always have a good meal with great service. I tried the Seafood Paella for the first time and it has a little more sauce and not as much rice as traditional Paella but it is an excellent dish.

    Food and service was very good. Good food with a nice view of the harbor. I have been here several times. Each time has been very pleasant experience.

    We had reservations at 7:00 but having a reservation at A1A Ale House doesn’t mean you won’t have to wait. When we checked in the hostess said to give them 10 minutes. I was okay with that, I understand that sometimes there’s a delay. But we were left standing and waiting for 30 minutes. We were finally seated at 7:30. And to make matters worse, we were given a tiny table cramped into a small space. There were too many tables in a small area. We could barely get into our seats. It was disappointing to say the least.

    Went for a casual dinner for my friend bachelorette and it was perfect! The staff members were funny and kind and ensured we had a great dinner!
