    After reading our Open Table request, Cathy set us up in a quiet area over the water so my 92 yr young Dad could hear better. Our server Mary took great care of us and the food was amazing! Thanks for a wonderful experience, we look forward to it again.

    Main courses were disappointing - the fish and steak were cooked well, but the flavors of both dish we selected were very underwhelming. The desert was just ok. The atmosphere was nice and so was our server. We enjoyed the view of the water.

    My husband and I had a very nice lunch. The service was impeccable, Shallie was knowledgeable of the specials of the day. Our meals were awesome! We had a beautiful view of the Indian River. We definitely be returning.

    Drinks were good, appetizers are great, had the chef's special which was grouper came out almost cold when served to me. Could tell it had been sitting out a while plus fish was not flaky. Also didn't get soup prior to dinner that was ordered. They didn't discount the soup cause they gave it to go. I'm not going to argue but don't feel that was the best way to handle it. We also had surf n turf which was good, not great. The price is for great food not good food. All in all food is not worth the price. Probably will not return here again.

    We drove up from Vero for someplace different and we were not disappointed. We had appetizers, salads and steaks everything was made to perfection. We had cocktails and Rodney Strong Pinot Noir with the steaks. It was our 50th anniversary and will become regulars !
