Delicious food. There's a line at the door well before they open. If you want to be seated before 5 with a view of the water, show up at 3:30. There's also the lounge dining room that doesn't have the view. The bruschetta appetizer is great! Freshly baked bread for the table. Love music and drinks at the outside bar when you're waiting makes the time go by quicker.

My husband and I ate here last night and everything about this restaurant was wonderful! The food was delicious, the view was gorgeous, and our waiter Zach was so kind and helpful. He went through the entire menu with us since we had never been there before. We were so pleased and will absolutely come back next time we are in the area!

We have been waiting for many visits to try this place, we always come in off season. Boy was it worth it from the view to the food to the service everything was perfect! Would highly recommend!

This place was wonderful, from the atmosphere to the service and the food! We had a short 10-15 minute wait, but it was pleasant right there on the water waiting, we were seated and waited on promptly by Tyler who was a wonderful server. We started off with the fresh bread loaf they make in house with butter and a bowl of Shrimp & Lobster Bisque, we both ordered broiled combination dinners, they were served with the most delicious garlic mashed potatoes I've ever eaten anywhere and the vegetable of the day, which were fresh green beans flash fried in minced garlic and lemon butter. They have several wonderful desserts to chose from, but we just didn't have the room, but we will return, and next time, we'll definitely be getting dessert!! LOVED IT!!

I was with a large group and we called ahead early, but was told they don't take reservations. However, they made a note of our group and had a table to accommodate us. We arrived early and the table was available for our group. We also received a great discount for arriving early. It was a pleasant surprise.

Just walk ins I believe. If you have to wait it is worth it and there is a beautiful area to wait overlooking the water with a gazebo.
