Nice view of water if that is something you are looking for. Service is what got it 3 stars. Drinks are nothing special, just get sparkling water. One of the pasta plates had a healthy fly in it, thank goodness she noticed it because we came in there ready to eat and was going in. A waiter and I am going to say possibly one of the managers came by and immediately apologized and her got a fresh plate and I believe took it off the check. Nothing to brag about when it comes to the food but that service was much appreciated.Vegetarian options: My dish is cauliflower

This place has great seafood and drinks with indoor and outdoor seating right on the canal at The Nautical Mile. The service was also on point.

Incredibly RUDE hostess and waitstaff. Had a 7pm reservation, got there at 6:45. By 7:30 after I had asked twice when we would be seated, the hostess rolled her eyes at me. Then she had a waitress seat us at a dirty table which I looked at and said "Are you kidding me?" The waitress said "We're short staffed, someone will come clean it." and walked away. Yeah, we left and I would NEVER go back. Rude, rude, rude.

This is absolutely the best restaurant on the Nautical Mile. The food is outstanding. The staff is phenomenal. I've avoided eating seafood for years. Now, the only place I'll have seafood is Rachel's. The Spicy Szechwan Crispy Meatball apps are outrageously good. the Baked Six Onion Soup is decadent. The Chili Seared Tuna Tacos are mouthwatering. The Blackened Skirt Steak and Gorgonzola Sandwich is delectable. They had a tuna dish a few weeks ago, a chili ginger rubbed bluefin tuna with pineapple fried rice, crispy sweet and sour shrimp, wasabi and sweet soy that made me see the world in a new light.

This restaurant is where I ate one of the best and finest seafood meals I ever had in my life. It is the gem of the Nautical Mile. It has a beautiful vibe with an upscale feel and the overall experience eating here was amazing. We shared the crab guacamole and the seafood sautee. The guac had huge chunks of both avocado and crab in it and was so flavorful that we just ate it with our spoons, no chips needed. (We are low-carb dieters but I admit we both tried a bit of the chips that came with the guacamole and they were really good!) The seafood sautee was prepared beautifully and the olive oil-based sauce was neither overpowering nor greasy. It was the perfect accompaniment for the zucchini ribbon noodles and flavorful, firm shellfish. Our server was also a darling. When he noticed we didn't eat any chips he said that if he had known we were eating low carb, he would have given us cucumbers instead - how sweet! We definitely intend to come back another time to enjoy the great food and aesthetics. It's such a fine establishment.

Was the worst meal I've ever had in my life. Ambiance was not good at all. Outdoor seating, decent view with zero music, wait staff was existent. Had customers paving around the tables with their children while talking on the cell phone during Covid and nobody said a word. Other customers had their phones on the tables playing music......just a bad experience all around. I got queasy from my meal. Steak and Gorgonzola Sandwich is what I ate. I do not recommend it. Order something else if you must eat there.

Love coming here for dinner and I was psyched about the drag show/brunch! It did not disappoint as the performers were hilarious and the brunch and service were excellent! Loved the teriyaki meatballs and the bananas foster French toast ?
