    Every bit of our meal was delicious! From shareables (appetizers) to the main course, food was fresh, well presented, and full of flavor variety. The server was very attentive and personable, and the water view was spectacular. The restaurant is very clean and no weird smells (even the bathroom was extremely well kept). We plan to return ASAP.

    I had the ribs and did not like them they were way overcooked and saturated in a sweet sauce, my wife had a shrimp appetizer and said it was excellent and her margarita was really good, I will go back but not sure what I will try next.

    Beautiful location. Kind and friendly wait staff. The dinner meal choices were limited, and the quality was subpar. No dinner bread or rolls were offered, and the dessert portions were small. The appearance of the dining area was nothing special. Plaster was falling off the wall in several places under a nearby window. When making reservations, I was asked if this was a special occasion. I identified it as an anniversary, yet this was never acknowledged by the hostess or wait staff.

    I've dined here several times before with a positive experience however, on this day it was not the case with the exception of the ATTENTIVE SERVICE BY ALLI. The Cavatini pasta with vegetables, a very simple dish to prepare was OVERCOOKED and COLD once served which was served together with the soup instead of after. I made the observation and they intended to correct the situation but unfortunately, the same dish was returned in under 10 minutes now hot but more overcooked because they simply reheated the same plate. A place like Oxbow should look at their kitchen practices a little closer. Upon my second return of the same dish the manager came to the table and offered to yet make it a third time which I refused. A credit was made to my bill but no effort was made to ensure I return. The lighting was extremely high, no romance in the ambience. I asked if the lighting could be dimmed some and they said it was not possible. The Gambas al Ajillo where good but not good to return.

    We heard after standing in the rain trying to electronically pay for parking in the adjacent lot, that we could have free parking! That information needs to be posted at the entrance of the adjacent lot. Our waitress was excellent, the view even in the rain was great, and the food was good. My husband especially liked the baby back spareribs! The key lime pie was very good.

    We were very excited to be here for the first time, and they had our table ready for us outside as requested when we arrived. I was very excited to see a great mocktail list. My jellyfish stinger was delicious! I ordered the farmers salad with salmon. The salad was good, but the salmon still had the skin on. It was a little crispy but not all the way through, and the salmon was very fatty yet overcooked. I did not like the salmon at all. Maybe it's just me. My husband had the shrimp etouffee which was loaded with fresh shrimp. He loved it but I felt the flavor was more Mexican than creole. Again, maybe it was just me. His Caesar salad was great. We will definitely go back, as I'm hoping I just didn't care for what I preferred, and hopefully I will like it better next time.
