Great view of river. Lunch prices are half the price of dinner prices, so I reccomend lunch. Go for the seafood. Food is good but I would not say excellent. More

My meal was so over-salted (a frequent complaint of mine of Florida restaurants) that I couldn't eat it. More

When the weather is nice, the outdoor seating overlooking the river is amazing. I brought my parents here to enjoy the view for lunch and we came back for sinner the same day. At lunch I recommend the Grouper Willy Sandwich. For Dinner we had beer battered grouper (we decided to hold the cajun seasoning) and crab cakes. The big... More

Beeb to bonefish several times and never had a bad meal. Usually order the crab cake appetizer as my main course with another appetizer or salad. Nice seasoning and not overly breaded. Had their cobia special the last time. Very fresh, perfectly done and super delicious. Service can be a little slow especially when crowded but the atmosphere is very... More

Decor and look pretty basic and probably will mislead new comers as to the calibre of food as it overachieves on expectations. Prices are reasonable and view from the deck overlooking water view is great! More

This was a nice little quaint restaurant that the staff our hotel recommended to us. I loved the waterfront location and patio. The salad served before dinner was delicious. My husband and I both ordered the shrimp scampi which was served with potatoes and carrots. The servings were small, prices were high, and the shrimp didn't have a whole lot... More
