Incredible food, beautiful views, great staff! Crab cakes were my fave-filled with lots of sweet crab, on top of a crispy, fried green tomato...I also had their homemade cheese tortellini in a light basil cream, with a lot of fresh lobster and perfectly seared scallops (which also was out of this world).
Unfortunately, I can only give five stars for this beautiful place. On my honeymoon with the wife and we got a beautiful table right by the water. Saw mullet jumping right next to us and some sheepshead at the dock! I got yellowfin snapper and she got halibut. Both were incredible dishes, I didn’t know fish could be cooked so perfectly! Couldn’t resist a second round of our cocktails either cause they were so delicious. There are no bad choices on their menu. Had some crème brûlée for dessert which was phenomenal. Our server Chris gave us some complimentary celebratory Champagne. It was simply an experience we’ll always remember and a huge highlight of our honeymoon!
Had an amazing dinner here last night. You can sit right on the dock and it is peaceful. The lobster bisque was creamy and rich. The escargot appetizer was light and cooked in puff pastry. I had the grouper with crab which was fresh and flavorful. My mom had the shrimp Scampi and my stepdad had the snapper. Great wine selection as well. We’ll be back!
