Considering the Quinn’s do not own this place anymore, I can finally write in full honesty. The food is really good, the staff had their ups and downs like everyone else. I remember a day where one of the managers flipped over the entire Kiosk at the end of a hard night over relationship drama, or when I was cussed at by the previous owner, or when the big fat baldy baby bear of the brother, harassed and tormented me on the job during shifts when I first started. The place was a revolving door of Cook line managers one every season. All because none of them “wouldn’t abuse the key” something I vowed I wouldn’t do if I were a real key holding manager. If I were, I would’ve been able to do more as a team member to help the place continue its legacy it had for the 30+ years it was open. That was my goal and to lift weight off many a shoulder.I had good memories though, like watching games after work, chilling at parties. We were all simply human! We hade feelings! Those were times I really most enjoyed as a worker here! So there are both good and bad times alike.

Great food and view. Service is spotty. Relaxed atmosphere

High prices for the atmosphere! It's definitely an outdoor restaurant. Very little inside seating and bring clothes to stay warm outside. Barbecue was much better than the coconut shrimp. Very short staffed for waitresses! The live music did make a nice evening! Very dog friendly, but a few too many dogs!

Crab Stuffed Mushrooms were good. The Flounder was tasty and the coconut shrimp was good. Each meal was a nice portion. Our waiter was nice pleasant attitude. I would recommend dining here.

Service was great and food was better than expected. They make their sauces from scratch and they are delicious. We both had mahi for lunch and nothing was left on our plates. Good view of the river. Live music on the weekends. Definitely worth the visit!

I like this place, it's got the old rustic but warm feel. Reminds me of Key West (one of my favorite place to relax and unwind). The server was pleasant and there was no waiting when we got there at around 4PM. Coconut shrimp appetizer was pretty good. I had fresh caught fish with rice and vegetables, the fish was well prepared and it had just the correct amount of seasoning. the view was nice but then the rain came and we had to run inside. My family enjoyed their meal and no one complained about any of the food so it was good.Down side to this place is that the outside tables were sticky, I believe it's from the plastic covering breaking down from extensive sun.Definitely a place I would revisit and try other menu items.Adryon

Amazing atmosphere! Drinks are cold, food is hot and staff is pleasant. Very cool place. Had gator bites, shrimp and stuff mushrooms, it was awesome.Info- Live bands on the weekends and plenty of drink specials

We came as a 10 top on a Friday night. It wasn't very busy and when we pulled up i thought there's no way this place will fit all of us. Looks are deceiving, friends. You walk through the restaurant to an enormous outdoor deck with live music playing. We dined on pitchers of beer, gator tail, oysters, steak, crab legs, coconut shrimp and much more. The coconut shrimp was the best I've ever had. Even my sister who hates shrimp, loved it. Our server could have been better keeping up with drink refills & it's a bit pricey but over all, 10/10 would recommend to anyone.

Saturday night 4 adults. Stood around a dirty table for quite a bit before it got bused. And by bused I mean moved to a neighboring dirty table next to us where it sat for too long. Had to ask to have table /menus wiped again. Food decent, wouldn't need to go again. Platters served with buttery, overcooked broccoli/veg mix like your 80+ grandma would want. Second round of drinks came 15m after we ordered them, around the time they should've been bringing the check. Apps decent, got gator bites, soft pretzel and a lime shrimp skewer. Rice under the skewer bland/uninspired but the shrimps were tasty ($13 for 6 med shrimp over rice). 2 crab cake dishes which the ladies thought were over fried but still tasty. Requested horseradish never arrived. One mahi platter, good but unremarkable. I got salad with blackened mahi. Nice touch by server who put it in front of me and realized the 2 little mahi fillets were underwhelming and went to the kitchen and got me 2 more fillets without my asking. Nicely dressed and tasty, fresh unlike the platter vegs. Nice evening water views, would go back but wouldn't go out of my way to do so. Live guitar/musician on the deck a nice touch.
This place is hidden gem. The front doesn't look like much but it opens up in the back and the view is beautiful and peaceful. We had to wait 45 minutes for food BUT to say sorry they gave us a free appetizer and half off a bucket of beer. It was worth the wait. We enjoyed eachother's company while waiting and they were so caring.The food! Phew, was it good. Gator was on point. Stuffed mushrooms were great. Had the flounder. It was delicious. EVERYTHING is cooked to order. So fresh tasting. Even the pina colada was homemade down to the whipped cream. Definitely a must.

This restaurant has a nice outdoor sitting area with a lovely view of the river. However, the food was not good. The plates looked dirty and the chicken was dry and tasteless. Definitely not worth the money imo.

First time eating here. I was forewarned that they were short staffed. Unbelievable service. The staff that was working was excellent. Food was great! Our server, Richelle (spelling?) Was the nicest person and a great sever. She went above and beyond to give us a great dining experience. Will definitely be back! Keep up the good work guys! 9/4/21 couldn't resist the great food and service here so we traveled back again.. Was so happy to see Richelle still on board here. More staff this time and everyone was friendly and and on top of it. Definitely a great place to visit. Once again, was very pleased to ear here on our visit to the area. Richelle is always a pleasure to visit with and the while staff were very friendly. Got to see the place lit up at night. Looks great! The food is always delicious. Can't wait to see the possible future changes with full alcohol menu, etc. Look forwards to our visit everytime.
