We arrived at the hostess stand and waited about 15 minutes until a waitress came by and said: “if the hostess isn’t going to come I guess I will seat you, we have plenty of seats.” Then we sat and were greeted fairly quickly and ordered 2 beers for my wife and I, a water for my son, and an order of tater bites and 2 orders of raw oysters. 30 minutes later we ordered 2 more beers as we expected our food soon. 20 minutes later, the waitress notified us that her “manager just informed us that we were out of oysters” and asked if we wanted anything else. We declined as the only reason we were there was for the raw oysters. I understand restaurants run out of things but 50 minutes after we ordered is an inconvenient time to find out. She brought the gator bites and told us the manager would be out to talk to us. (Which we didn’t ask for but thought was a step in the right direction) unfortunately the manager never came and the waitress told us that for our trouble she had removed the oysters (that we never received!). We paid our $56 bill for our 4 beers and gator bites for our son and left.We have been coming to this place for 35 years and it has slowly gone downhill to the point that I think they have lost my patronage. Such a great location but poor management has pushed most people next door to the Mexican restaurant.

Service is beyond awful for sub par food. We were compt chips and queso and that never came either. Lots of other options in the area pick something else.

The outside seating was probably the highlight of this place. However right below you could see what appeared to be just a large area of dumped trash. There was also another restaurant/bar right next door, and at first we couldn’t tell if it was the same establishment or not. That place was packed!!! People were just seating themselves even though there was signage posted to “wait to be seated”. A couple people left because a group had seated themselves after they’d been there waiting before them. The service was not anything phenomenal, our waitress came maybe 3x while we were there, and forgot to bring a beverage back but remembered as we were paying for our food. They seemed steady but I wouldn’t have called it “busy”. The food was subpar. The gator tail bites were rather chewy, and overcooked. Probably not a place wed venture back to. Hopefully they can get more staff and a little better quality food.

My modest family and I embarked on a quest for a grill, and this was our sole, not so crowded discovery. Regrettably, the culinary experience fell short of expectations; opting for fish and chips, we found the fish excessively breaded and the fries merely passable.However, the service offered a pleasant touch.On a brighter note, the ambiance proved delightful, with vistas of the sea, beach, and even glimpses of the Cape Canaveral space station. Convenient parking adjacent to the restaurant enhanced the overall experience.

Service was super slow and orders were ere incorrect. Don’t go here if you don’t have an extra hour to spend waiting for service and food.

They make you wait to be seated on roof. Ok. Great view. Then sit u down give u menus in the sun and make u wait 20 mins to even come by and say we are in middle of shift change and walk away didn't even ask for a drink order. Mean while people walking up any stairwell they wanted sitting down and getting service and food before we are acknowledged again. We were just 2 adults 2 teenagers quite not making any fuss or noise. The staff just looked at us like we were someone else's problem as they walked by. We asked for help with service no answer didn't even say one minute. So we waited 35 mins no service or Evem drinks. Have eaten there before many times but will never be back.

Horrible experience! The bartender was drunk or high or hungover, she didn't acknowledge us for 10 minutes! Ordered food wanted a salad, she said don't have salads, then I see a server with salads! Really too lazy to get salad, then people sat at bar she didn't acknowledge them, they left, when I told her about salad she brought me one with her fingers touching the lettuce! She definitely was out of it, in slow motion not a care, should have sat at a table. There was no manager, ask for one never came to talk to us! Go to sandbar next door much better service!!

Came here for dinner! Big mistake! There were bugs everywhere and we waited for almost 10 minutes to even be approached about how many were in our party. When we finally sat down and were approached by our server, we were told we couldn’t order apps yet, (she was to busy) and we were informed we could not get separate checks. In fact we were treated like crap for even asking. Food was barely mediocre and way too expensive for what it was. We left 2 credit cards to pay the bill and our server said we can’t do that. I informed her I spent 26 years in the restaurant business and had never heard of that!!??She said she’d “do her best” then came back with the bill split unevenly and for more than the bill was for. She informed us she was getting fired for running 2 credit cards. I about lost it….Unprofessional and underwhelming…explains everything about this establishment!!

Great location staff is great good time and a good view.
very unorganized staff, we waited a long time to be seated and waited over an hour for some caesar salads. many people also seemed to be waiting to be served and had to wave down staff multiple times in order to even place their order. would not come again

The waiter was cooperative and helpful to a degree. The women at the bar with the blonde hair and the other one with darker hair did not assist us when we asked for a refund. They said they'll have to get a manager for us to get a refund then didn't even bother looking for one. They even tried to ask us if we wanted anything after then exchanged weird faces when we didn't want anything else other than a refund.On a separate note, the food I got was not worth the money I paid. Spinach dip was bland and I did not get a good serving size amount to accompany the chips they gave me.Upon walking to the building I didn't know it was exclusively on the roof top so bring a jacket since nothing else will help you.

We stopped here for lunch on our drive south. We sat on a booth overlooking the beach. The views are amazing! The restaurant was not full as it was a weekday. The staff is super friendly and attentive. They have free parking in front of restaurant or you can park across the street. Food was good. My chicken needed a little seasoning but it was cooked well. Drinks were ok. I’ve had better.

The food was fantastic, but our server was horrible. The inside part of the restaurant was closed so we had to eat on the upstairs patio, where it was windy and chilly.
