Really love Lefty's! Great casual dining with high quality food. The salmon with Dijon caper sauce is divine and so the red snapper with white wine butter sauce. Both super delicious! They also have really great specials that change depending what available. Service is good. Nice casual environment.

Lefty's has been in business forever and draws a very steady crowd, so overall it is very good. This visit was moderate. The stuffed grouper was ok, the pistachio crusted trout ok, and the clam linguini was below average (clams were tiny and not enough). The clam chowder was off the charts great! Oysters were fine. Service was friendly but just adequate. I guess this was "ok" but my wife said "not rushing back."

I tried to redeem my $40 prepaid MasterCard that open table sent me clearly easy to use. They were uncooperative said they didn’t want to try it then they tried it said it only had $6.95 on it totally screwed it up. I called the number on MasterCard and they said they inputted $6.95 and now they have defaulted the card. Please respond to me and please make sure that I get my $40 Visa Prepaid card to use at another restaurant at another time I’m very annoyed with this program that open table is using I did everything correct and I’m being penalized and scolded by the Restuarant. I’ve been dining at Lefty for 40 years and enjoy their food. I do not want them to black list me over this situation.

Consistently good food. We often order the Scallops Special and Sauteed Snapper and they're both always prepared well.

Always excellent service, delicious food and great selections, and it was perfect for us to have a little meeting (quiet enough in the dining room). Excellent experience, as always, at Lefty's!
