Castaway Restaurant blows me away every time. The view is breathtaking,the service is always friendly and the food is delicious. Castaway is a great place to kick back and unwind. They also offer a great menu selection and a full bar with many exotic cocktails. Highly recommended! Must Try Restaurant. letseatwithalicia.com
Messy, Dirty, Disorganized, Overpriced. We went for the Sunday Brunch and had made reservations. The restaurant was packed and had many guest still waiting to be seated but the hosts seems disorganized. The buffet had mostly empty trays when it was only 1:30 and nothing was refilled. Everything was in disarray whether it be the food or the set-up. It looks dirty, distasteful and very very messy! When the bill came and we only then found out it was $40 a head, we were quite blown away considering how everything was, it should only be worth nothing above $20. Will never go back !
Worst service ever. They sat us at a plastic table outside with no silverware or napkins – or anything at all. And nobody even looked at us for over 10 minutes so we left. Saw other tables looking like they were waiting for a check or staff of some kind – and nobody came to them either. Complained to the host and he did nothing. Will never go back.
Great view, happy hour and sunset menu were perfect. As everyone else mentions, the view truly is amazing. I surprised my husband and took him to this hidden gem for his birthday. Sitting on the patio around 5pm is very relaxing, especially when you have happy hour prices to enjoy a glass of wine (some wines $6 a glass, domestic beers $3). We also were able to enjoy an appetizer for $6 that is a must try. It was the best spinach artichoke dip I’ve ever had. They also gave us bread with butter and the best pesto dip to spread. The prices on the main menu were high, but I had looked at the sunset menu before our visit and was not disappointed. For about $22 per person you get a three course meal, which is a GREAT deal! For the first course my husband got the salad and I ordered the chicken tortilla soup, both of which were delicious. For the main course I had salmon and my husband had the prime rib. Both were just right. The sauce on the salmon was great and it was served with quinoa and broccoli cooked just right. The mash potatoes that came with the prime rib were also great! The third course is a piece of cheesecake, which was the perfect way to end our meal.Side note *If you are used to fine dining or work in fine dining, you will notice that the building could use some updating, as well as a few other things, but that didn’t make my experience bad 🙂
Not as good as it used to be.. We were celebrating our anniversary and ordered steak and lobster. The price was very high for the quality. The lobster was tasteless. The waitress did not ask if we were celebrating anything, and did not acknowledge our anniversary even though it was stated when our reservations were made. Very disappointing meal. I made a note in my calendar to go to a different restaurant when we celebrate next year. We have gone to Castaway several times for our anniversary over the last 15 years, but will not again.
Mother. The variety of food allowed everyone in our party of nine to find something to their liking. None of the food was very special though. The food was set-out all over the dinner room though which meant lots of walking around to get the food. The service was poor. It was a champagne brunch yet getting the server to refill everyone’s glass each time around was a chore. The mothers in our party were given gift cards to the restaurant….nice touch until we got home and found that all of the gift cards had zero balance. Emails to Castaway about the gift cards have gone unanswered.17 May, 2014Mother’s Day Brucnh. The variety of food allowed for everyone in our party of nice something to eat. The service was poor though…it was a champagne brunch yet getting the server to refill my glass was a chore. The food was set out all over the large dinner room which meant lots of walking around to get food. The mothers in our party were given gift cards to the restaurant, nice touch until we got home and found the balance on them was zero. Emails to Castaways asking about the gift cards have gone unanswered.The view is spectacular but the food and service certainly isn’t.
Valet parking Service very bad.. First, the waiting to be served is very long. Out of 5 dinner plates one was left behind for 5 minutes and we all had to wait; by then our food was cold!When we left the restaurant and walked towards the valet parking, we noticed our car was left at the same place with the key right on the door. The guy never parked it and the key was never put away. Anyone had access to the car, someone could’ve taken it. Of course there was no need to give the valet ticket as they did not have the keys secured. Very irresponsible!!
