"When a reservation is made for a specific time that reservation should be honored within 5 minutes of its specific time and not be told that the patrons have dined longer than expected, poor management. The food was above average but not as special as many catering to that demographic. The service was good but the food server was not made aware of which entree should go be served to each diner. The restaurant was noisy.
Overall, it was an enjoyable experience but not one to revisit reguarly.

"The food is ok the service is not. Our water glasses were never filled unless we asked. Everyone is friendly but there doesn't seem enough people to handle a not even full dining room. It's sad as the location is fantastic!"

"We made a reservation but had to wait over 20 minutes for a table. It was very loud and no place to wait other than the bar.
I was with my 80+ year old parents which is why we went at 645. Service was very slow but the barbecue special was very good.
They live in PB so I am sure they will go often during the off season....

"Everything was good for the most part. The panko snapper was dry and the banana bread pudding was small and below average. However; The lobster jambalaya was terrific. Also the tuna tacos and oysters on the half shell were awesome."

"The food was good but not exceptional. Service was very slow. Even with a lunch reservation requesting sidewalk seating, we had to wait for 15 minutes and then opted to eat inside. Waiter then did not show up for another 10 minutes and food was not served for another 20 minutes."
