   Love the place and the beach of course. The food was really good. The main server was really slow at order taking, drink refills, and it took more than 10 minutes after we requested the check to get out. We had somewhere to be so it added stress. A Monday night and the place was only 1/2 full. We would go back, but not for the service.

   Daiquiri Dick’s was the first place highly recommended by a friend who said I MUST go. So, my wife and I made a 6:45 pm (pre-sunset is a MUST) reservation , and we arrived a little before 6:30. Here is a beautiful memorial park across the street before we checked into the hostess desk. Two very pleasant and friendly young women greeted us and found our reservation immediately, then a server guided us to our outside, (requested) on the sand, well set table. The view of the ocean, the breaking waves against the shore, and the orange ball of sun dropping low in the west was beyond breathtaking. Within a very short moment, our server for the night, Cedric, introduced himself, and he immediately was so likable and fun. He quickly took our drink orders, and while we looked over the well organized menu, he returned with our beverages. He shared tonight’s specials and when we asked about his favorite appetizers, he perked up with even more enthusiasm to recommend the Famous Captain Crunch Onion Rings, which we will definitely order again, just unbelievable good. My wife, who sometimes finds it hard to find something good on a menu (she’s not much of a meat, seafood person) ordered the Chicken Piccata, which she said was one of her favorite diner out in a very long time, she ate everything on her plate, except for a few capers from the butter sauce. I ordered a Ribeye steak special with a spectacular baked potato, perfectly cooked asparagus spears, and a moist, perfectly cooked (medium) steak that almost filled my plate. We took Cedric’s recommendation for a chocolate chip cookie/ice cream dessert that was so delicious. Everything was phenomenal, but I cannot end without mentioning the live musician, a incredibly gifted guitarist with a smooth, easy to listen to voice. His mastery of the guitar blew us away, yet he was not loud , just a beautiful compliment to an exquisite evening. Everyone was superb, restrooms were clean, and we will be back in a few days. We loved it all

   This place has new ownership and we came here last year after they took over. We didn’t like it at all. Shame they didn’t keep the old menu. But I decided to give it a chance. Much improved. Wish there was more of a selection but we both enjoyed the food. Will definitely return.

   Another wonderful experience. The shrimp al ajillo was very good. All three of us chose it and we were not disappointed. We also shared onion rings, which were terrific— a special recipe and presentation. The music performance is a special addition to the ambiance. Another night one of us had rigatoni with shrimp, which was also excellent.

   We’ve been to Daiquiri Dick’s many times and have always enjoyed it. This time the food and the service wasn’t as good.

   Service started strong then increasingly declined. Asked 5 times through three different employees for more water, and had to ask for the check 5 times for no less than 30 minutes until we finally got them. One steak that was ordered rare was medium. All other meals were very good.

   Pleasant setting but service lacking. The food was bad. I ordered a burger medium rare and repeated it twice to the waiter. I got a well done burger and could not alert the waiter as he was missing in action. Ended up eating a tiny bit of it and left the rest. I complained at the end of the meal and was told that our waiter had left as his shift was over. Unacceptable.

    Waited an hour after ordering food before finally being served. No one came to table to check on us. Served raw salmon, they recooked same fish and burnt it. At the end, waiter advised that they were short staff but kept bringing in more and more guests, everyone was waiting a while for food.
