   Bobby was a terrific bartender and server. Grouper bites 100% and the linguine with clams was 150%

   Three of us there for an early birthday celebration. Ate out on the patio which was perfect. Mary was our server and she could not have been more efficient and knowledgeable! We were there for happy hour and had clams and shrimp and soft shells — and espresso martinis! And shared a delicious key lime pie. We all made reservations to go back — this Saturday and for Mother’s Day!

   This was our first time at Lefty's, and we enjoyed it very much. We had originally reserved a table outside, but it was 5:30 PM on a hot days, and there were no tables available in the shade. So we sat inside, choosing a booth near the bar. That choice is the only reason I didn't give "ambience" 5 stars... The TV over the bar was playing music videos, and the music was way too loud. It was hard for me and my three friends to hear each other. We did ask one of the hostesses to turn it down, and she did, but it was still intrusive. The sound might not have been such a problem at a table near the front, but not sure. Anyway, we'll definitely go back!

   Perhaps this was the wrong choice for us. We are older and it was way too noisy for us so please understand others were having a great time. I enjoyed the oysters cooked with garlic and cheese.

   Wine High priced for quality of selection. Only reason noise level was high because of screening child
