Great place for a quick bite before WTR. Christian has got to be one of the nicest service staff at the hotel and also he’s super friendly. Made me feel super welcome and was also very helpful. Much appreciated! Also, the f&b manager who also helped me with the shuttle was hilarious as well. I like this place will be back

I went to this "bistro at 10am and politely asked if this hotel had breakfast and the male attendant was rude and sassy and said "no the gentleman before you already asked that..and I asked him if he had bagels and he said rudely "look at menu and didn't answer my question..

The menu wasn't what they described it being online. It was much less. They charged a 20% gratuity regardless of how we, the customer, felt about our experience. It was extremely hot indoors. There was one waiter. We were there bringing my son who joined the army and had to meet at the hotel to ship out. I made the reservation stating it was a celebration for him and it wasn't even acknowledged. I unfortunately wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.
The band was good, the view was pretty. Parking is $6.00 with no validation for eating dinner and spending close to $100. There was no wine list, but she gave a few options, Clois duBois is a $10, bottle at the grocery. It used to be 3x the price at a restaurant we paid $50. I should have asked, rather than using an old rule of thumb estimate. The food was good, quantities were not large. I don't think we will be back, we were celebrating a birthday so we were out several times last week celebrating. Lucky Lobster, Dunedin. Sacred Pepper Tampa, all were about the same price and we had much better value., portions and flavor. It's a shame because it does have a great view and we enjoyed the band.
Pretty spot but lots of sea gulls were bothering our group. Our server did not bring us silverware or napkins. When we left we said “thank you, good night” to the hostess. She didn't look up from her cell phone to acknowledge us. The food was great! Steak and chicken tacos. Drinks were good too.

Been here before for a pool party and loved it. Went for dinner and hated it. It's a beautiful place on the water, but the server was terrible and we were given plastic silverware and plates and it all blew way into the water and we felt terrible. The food was served to us in Togo containers even though we dined in. Food took forever and came out cold. We had to go to the bar to check out and that was extremely annoying. Definitely wouldn't recommend unless you're going to the pool party they host or grabbing drinks and want a cute scenery.
I was referred here by my hotel. I clearly was not in the ballpark for the ages of the regular attendees. Had to sit on the concrete pool edge or a tall top u less I wanted to rent an overpriced cabana. Felt like I wandered into spring break. Never saw so many thongs in one place other than a Victoria secret catalog. Will NOT return

Cancelled my 5:45p valentines dinner reservation at 1:30pm that same day. Leaving me no time to find alternate plans. They were not apologetic and claimed they booked a wedding the night before, which is difficult to believe.
I booked a table for two for Valentine's Day, and as me and my date pulled in, I received a call saying the venue was booked for a wedding and our reservation was canceled. No prior warning and 5 minutes before our date. Poor service indeed.
