Wonderful lunch with our friends by the water. Great service & delicious food.

Ann was amazing. She was spot on with service and table touched at the perfect times. Delightful and helpful. My father was visiting from out of town and she took photos for us with the moon in the background. Told us her name and while we tried to pronounce it we had a good laugh and said Ann it is. 🤣. She’s from Thailand. We didn’t feel rushed. Got a great table like I requested and had a wonderful evening. Great food and even better service.

Always enjoy dining at Banana Boat. Reservation was on time, service was excellent & food is always wonderful.

I made a reservation for 7:15 for 4. When I got to the restaurant they said it was for 8:15 so apparently someone changed my reservation to suit the restaurants needs. Luckily I had my confirmation email showing I had made it for 7:15. I didn’t appreciate it as we had company from out of town and I made the reservation a week or so in advance. After being seated 20 minutes later everything turned out fine.

Awesome outdoor dining along the canal! There was a band playing with a lot of positive energy. I would definitely recommend the coconut shrimp!

As usual, great location, love their chopped salad with salmon and good service! 😊

Great outdoor/ indoor restaurant on the Intracoastal. The limited menu is priced right and the food is great. The restaurant has been a neighborhood gem for years and has been consistantly serving great food in a great location.

Nice location on the Intracostal Waterway. Food was good pub style fare. Service was good. Outdoor seating seemed safe. The bar areas were crowded with few if any patrons wearing masks.

Very pleasant atmosphere outside. The service was excellent and the food was very good.

Very enjoyable!

Always problematic making reservations for outside, no consistency. ....employees always give different answers on outside seating!
Wouldn’t recommend.

Our server Shareesha was great. So nice. Always one of our favorites

If you are looking for a restaurant that offers a great inter-coastal view, lots of bustling activity with boats and jetski's passing you, quality and professional service, tables that are not close to each other, and good food . . . this is the place. It's not fancy or pretentious; but you will leave with a smile. Plenty of outdoor seating.

Great experience

Banana Boat is a prime spot on the intracoastal waterway overlooking the preserve on Manalapan Island. Banana Boat has excellent food, especially their seafood selections, and terrific service. It has been a favorite spot for us since 1978!

The food was not great. It was cold and you don’t get very much for the price. I wouldn’t recommend dinner menu. I would stick with sandwiches or salad.
It is very casual so I don’t recommend fancy outfit. Outside dining is like a bar atmosphere. Only waitstaff wore face masks. Very crowded and no social distancing.

Dinner and the service was great. Unfortunately there was a very loud band at Two Georges next door which made it hard to talk. Also a very loud table of about 10 next to us.

The food, price, & service are always good at this restaurant and that is why we come back here many times.

Also, the intracoastal view is great!

Outside dining! Nice ambiance! Music too loud making it difficult to talk among our party of 4.

The food and food were outstanding. So much fun!!

Naomi was a great server and the experience was pleasant

Nice lunch on thedeck

The food was wonderful as always but the service was phenomenal! Our waitress, Jessica, was full of smiles, paid attention to details and took exceptional care of us!

Lovely location overlooking the intracoastal waterway- lots of water birds! Food was wonderful!

Our Banana Boat experiences are always fantastic. In particular, we were concerned about seating since our friend is handicapped. When we arrived everything about the table reserved for us was perfect. Not always in other restaurants have our concerns been addressed with such care.

Had dinner very nice to sit outside

if you love the waterfront and great food and service this is the place to eat

My favorite restaurant 😍. I love the food and service.

Beautiful atmosphere,
Great service, food went down in quality, my family has been coming her since 1986 said to see

Valentines

Went here for Valentines Day and everything was perfect. Food and drinks were great and the noise level was not too loud. I will definitely be back. A++

Valentine’s Day

Good food and lovely setting. It was a busy day but the servers did their best to provide great service.

Great Valentines lunch. Ashley was lovely. Delicious food and drinks as always

As usual you didn't disappoint. Our table was waiting and was exactly what we asked for because we were dining with a friend who is handicapped. The service and the food were excellent. There is no place where i feel improvement is needed. Thank you for a beautiful Valentine's Day.

Enjoyed my food can’t beat the service. Wonderful. Thank you

Frequent patron. Salads are excellent, especially the Seafood Cobb. The fans were on creating much wind

As usual, the Banana Boat was a good time, with good food and attentive service. However... and I hate to be COVID police, but you have to be kidding me with the bar scene. It was PACKED, like they were celebrating the end of COVID. And the nasty part is that you have to walk through the crowd (not near, THROUGH) of maskless drunks if you want to eat outside. I have a huge heart, and I feel terrible for the industry and what the pandemic has done to it, but I can’t make sense of the bar scene. At least close the sides that serve as passageways. Oh, and my dad got propositioned on the way in. Some drunks were ready to leave and offered to sell him their stools! Viva capitalism!

Great afternoon on the Intracoastal with friends. The view is spot on. Food choices were well explained. Presentation perfect. Able to take our time, not rushed

great outdoor dining, fresh food, wonderful servers
