Waterway Cafe offers "amazing atmosphere and food to match" with stunning views of the intracoastal. Recently renovated, it boasts a beautiful design and varied menu, featuring standout dishes like the pistachio-crusted Chilean sea bass. Service is often praised as "excellent," although some find the 20% auto-gratuity policy unusual.

My girlfriend and I sat at our table. The waitress came over and took our drink orders. When the drinks were served, we were ready to order our meals. When shared a salad for our appetizer. In the middle of eating our salad, the main course was served. When we told the server we weren't ready for the main course, his answer was "The plates were very hot." We also felt for this high priced restaurant, the food was just OK. We did not stay for coffee or desert. W e honestly felt we were being rush out so they can turn the table.

I love the make over. The food was outstanding! We had the grilled salmon with rice and broccolini and the bacon cheddar burger and fries. Very good lunch options.

A group of 7 went for lunch to celebrate a birthday. First of all, it is beautiful and open inside, the outside areas have a new look as well. Our server Olivia was really excellent, kind patient. Everyone enjoyed their food, although there was not a great deal of choice for a Vegan in our group. Two people in the group ordered Fish and Chips, and two others advised that is what they are ordering next time. I went with the burger and it was delicious. We also brought a birthday cake which they brought to the table, we requested no singing. Everyone had an enjoyable experience and will be returning.

We really enjoyed the beautiful design of the restaurant. Heard that they reopened about five months ago after being closed for major renovations. Also, the food was amazing. We started off with the lobster guacamole and tortilla chips, then had the pistachio crusted Chilean sea bass with vegetables and an order of lobster mashed potatoes. Everything was phenomenal. We had key lime pie for dessert, which was a little sweet for our palette, but was well executed. We also had a drink at the floating bar, which is a great space on the intracoastal waterway. My wife’s espresso martini was very good. We’re making another reservation while here on vacation. Can’t wait to try more of the menu and have another great experience at Waterway.
