The only thing great was the lobster roll. Also they made us pay two separate bills for a drink at the bar . Which made know sense basically she made sure she got her own tip and then had us pay another bill just to get another tip and tax money. Bullcrap. I won’t ever come back. Horrible

DO NOT EAT HERE!
A group of 4 of us waited for a literal 2.5 hours from the time of ordering before we decided to finally leave. Two times our meals (and the appetizers) was given away to the wrong table. it took nearly an hour upon arrival to get the first drinks. every little detail in addition to the big ones was wrong. asking for straws (mixed drinks were missing them) led to being brought too few. drinks barely had alcohol if any at all (this problem is a theme if you look at enough reviews). throughout the time we waited, numerous people from various tables continued to leave due to lack of food showing up. we overheard a number of people complaining about no food coming. people complaining about prices ($23 for a burger). we finally just paid for what we had and told them to cancel the rest of the order. somehow it still costs $118 for 4 mixed drinks, 2 mixed drinks that were half a normal drink, and a single beer. please save yourself the trouble and don’t go here.

This is the worst restaurant I have been to since I can remember. Legitimately. No garnishes or sauces arrived like the menu described. No silverware. No napkins. For all of us. When we asked for silverware in order to eat our meal, the server continued to wait on other tables before eventually strolling inside. The other diners in my party were given legitimately inedible food. We ate outside and didn't see the signs that a 20% tip is included automatically. Perhaps inform people? Even on the check? Both bathrooms were closed. Truly an offensive waste of $80. Maybe if you're drunk you wont notice yourself being robbed by this restaurant.

Had a pina colada and steak tips. Unfortunately the steak tips were drowned in sauce but strangely dry in the center and the rice was almost inedible because it was so crunchy.
My friend also ordered the same thing and had to send it back. I was desperately hungry so I just finished it despite the hard rice.
The server was nice and comped my friend.
For atmosphere, we ate in the outdoor dining area. It was nice being in the sun with the beach in view. It would have been better if the food was good.

The service was kind and friendly. The view was very nice.
The food was not good. The lobster bisque was just broth and soupy, I was charged $16! The lobster roll was overcooked and chewy. The calamari was good but the marinara sauce was just tomato sauce. Way overpriced. Would not recommend.
