    Overall pretty good but they use frozen battered fries which taste terrible. You would think they would cut their own steak fries considering the menu they have.. nice location on the water

    I was charged $20 for 2 oz of Belvedere vodka which costs &30 for a whole bottle. Unacceptable. I asked for more vodka & was turned down by the manager. He said 2 oz was the measured pour & thats that. Stupid response. He should have at least added some vodka as a gesture for that one time & explained their policy for the future. A sharp manager would try to accommodate the customer & leave her with a good feeling. Nothing disgusts me more than being taken advantage of.

    Remodeled into a more open and variety of seating options. All great choices. They have initiated a 20% tipping policy for the wait staff, and make that clear as you check-in. Service was excellent.

    First time here. Terrific experience. Nice place to eat both inside and outside. This restaurant recently renovated and everything looks new fresh and inviting. Great seating outside next to the docks and bar. Comfortable seating great water views and fantastic service.

    A little overpriced and lacking in simple seafood options. No way an entree should cost $60. It might. Across from the new Ritz but this is still palm beach gardens and this is suppose to be a waterside local joint. Not South Beach or Palm Beach. Auto 20% tip is a bad idea. I often tip more - probably won’t come back simply b/c of that
