Reviews
"Delicious breakfast right on the beach with free parking across the street. Be sure you only go to their restaurant or they will tow your car. They have a full bar with delicious mimosas and bloody Marys. Also try the potato casserole. We got the Eggs Benedict (hugely recommend) and the seafood quiche (was very dry, will not order that again). Waitress was fantastic. I wish we had got her name."
"Our server, Aaron was FANTASTIC - Super friendly and welcoming! Best server hands down! Nothing like eating on the sand next to the ocean. Food and especially grouper was excellent! Second time we have been to this restaurant and have had a great experience both times. You won’t regret it!"
"We ate here twice on our vacation at different times of day and both times were enjoyable. The patio is awesome on the beach, servers we're friendly and prompt and the food was all good. Will definitely recommend."
"We ate here on our first night in a week long trip to Anna Maria Island and sadly we have to say this was the least favorite of all the places we ate at. The food is about $10 overpriced on about every item they have. Guess you are paying for the beachfront property and view. The food wasn't bad, it just didn't meet the value of the prices. They ran out of a few items but they subbed them out as best they could. We had a big party and didn't have to wait long to be seated which was a good thing. I would eat here if you are looking for a last min place to eat and a place to catch a great sunset while you eat. I had the grouper sandwich and it was an extremely thin piece of fish. Son had the fish tacos and we also got kids chicken fingers. If you enjoyed this review please be sure to click the like button. Thank you!"
