    We arrived early for our reservation and were greeted very warmly by host and manager and seated immediately. a server arrived immediately and took drink and appetizer orders and provided a listing of specials and answered questions about the menu, We enjoyed the bread basket and and BBQ shrimp appetizers and the entrees were brought to the table with great timing, well prepared, hot and nicely presented. The jumbo fried shrimp was very well prepared and tasty as were three servings of grouper, served in three different dishes. Fish seemed to be truly "fresh catch" and healthy servings. Server Mckinna was attentive, friendly and knowledgeable and the manager checked on us several times as well. We finished the meal off with servings of bread pudding with bourbon glaze and excellent coffee. A very nice evening, beautiful facility overlooking the Rudee Inlet. Thank you.

    Great service the day after Thanksgiving with the service team and host taking a team effort to make sure our group of 7 had everything we needed. The fish of the day was flounder and came in very generous portions on the fish sandwich which several of us had. We will be back.
