    We sat outside by the marina for our 6:00PM reservation. Drinks were great and so was the onion/mushroom strudel. Our meals were delicious! We cleaned our plates. Chocolate mousse cake hit the dessert spot. Sunset was perfect. Our waiter was nice, just took way too much time between dinner and dessert. I thought he forgot it.

    There is no ambience, it is just a big room. Food was mixed, I had the special Yellofin Snapper, it was lukewarm warm and very small. The Asian Salad was bland. The other guests meals were ok. Service was slow. Will not eat here again.

    Our dinner was excellent, our server was very attentive, knowledgeable, and sweet. The 4 of us enjoyed everything we ordered! We ate inside as it was very windy, but our view was beautiful overlooking the marina and we loved the sofa and pillows at our table! Classy place and a delicious meal!

    Short ribs were not as tender as they should have been. Could not finish. Patio needed to be swept and cleaned. Noticed a guest smoking on the edge next to the pool.

    Fantastic location and ambiance with awesome views. Staff is fantastic. Especially Marcos the bar manager!! Food is also really good. My one recommendation would be to expand the menu to allow more more varied selections at different price points.

    We made reservations for dinner before the symphony. We arrived at Yellow Fin Bar & Kitchen about 25 minutes early. There was some hesitation in seating us early even though there were only two tables seated in the section we were placed. We were served water when seated but sat for 30 minutes before we flagged down a waitperson. She agreed to take care of our table - but found out later, we were seated in her section. Our waitperson was very attentive once she took our table. The food was served in good time once ordered and was delicious (I had the grouper, and my husband had the short ribs). The atmosphere of the interior restaurant is clean and crisp - very nice. The outdoor dining area (where we were seated) is nicely landscaped and right near the marina and a pool area of the resort - so a lot of very neat things to see and watch. The fire pit areas are very nice. They have had a live musician playing each evening we have been there. We did talk with the evening manager on our way out regarding the timing issue at the beginning of the evening but feel this is something that the crew should have been on top of from the beginning. We will return but will be certain to arrive according to how our reservations are booked and not allow a lag time in between being seated and being addressed.

    It was a cute lil restaurant but was basically empty at sunset. Customer service was pretty good as well as the food. Nothing stood out with dinner.
