   Fish was overcooked and over sauced which makes us think they’re trying to mask poor quality, outdoor kitchen was filthy as were restrooms. We would never return.

   The food was excellent! I had the fish of the day, which was snapper and I chose blackened. It was amazing. My husband had a salad with blackened shrimp, again, amazing! The only issue was that when our food was delivered the flies descended- and I mean a LOT of flies. The waitress brought a small flame, which helped some, but we had to eat fast and keep waving them away.

   This was one of the worst tourist traps we have eaten at.! Don’t be fooled by the location and appearance. The longest time the waiter spent with us was to stand over us for the tip and check. We watched two other guests get frustrated, paid for his drinks and walked out. The waiter spent more time worried about his tip and check too. I commend him for walking out, while we sat and suffered. The place wasn’t even half full. If it’s busy prepare to spend the night.

   My daughter and I had a good meal at Castaways. It was a fun atmosphere. I was disappointed with the conch wontons. They were cold in the middle, and the wonton wrappers were not crisp. My daughter had a chicken Alfredo pasta that she enjoyed, and I had the Catch of the day with coconut curry, which was tasty. Overall ok food with a fun ambiance.

   Food was okay. Really wanted our conch fritters for the appetizer and she never put the order in. But it was ok overall. Any dinner in TCI is better than at home.
