    Love the new renovation, looks beautiful. Food was good, especially the spicy tuna stacker. Service, however, leaves a lot to be desired. Brought wrong soup order, and while still enjoying my appetizer, proceeded to bring the main course. Never refilled the water glasses, and took forever to get a second glass of wine. Seems like there was plenty of staff hanging around but not very attentive.

    Our lunch at Waterway Cafe was wonderful in all aspects - food, service, atmosphere. We wish we could have sat outside but it was a super busy day and we did get to have a water view at least. We were celebrating my daughters birthday and they put a candle in our Key Lime Pie and sang to her which was sweet. My glazed salmon was spectacular and everyone else enjoyed theirs as well.

    Food and service was very good. Drinks were terrible obviously not skilled bartenders. Atmosphere outside near the bar is very cool if you can get seating there. Inside is very loud and parking was chaotic and you almost have to use valet.

    Nice decor and outside area. Waiter was good. Bartender couldn’t make 2 basic cocktails that we requested. Food was disappointing at best.
