I stopped here to meet friends for lunch. There was a great breeze and we could look out into the Bayou and watch the boats. We had a very energetic and helpful server, a nice lady named Alex, who guided us through the menu. I ordered a Fork Lift: a grilled fish (basa) covered with sauted onions and peppers. It was delicious the fish was tender and flavorful, and not eclipsed by the aromatic vegetables.. The fries that accompanied it were some of the best I’ve ever had. I did not eat the bun because I wanted to enjoy the fish. The food was priced very reasonably, especially when you consider the prime location and spectacular views. This is the perfect place to enjoy a meal on a perfect day.
Went on Saturday evening. Got seated right away. Live music was going on as we walked in. Josh, our waiter was was right there as we sat diwn. I had the grilled blackened fish with fresh in season grilled vegetables. My husband had the oyster po-boy. Both were excellent choices. Josh recommended we finish the meal with their signature key lime pie and we are glad he did. Excellent service, great food and the atmosphere was fun and lively. We sat overlooking the harbor with a nice breeze blowing through. Would recommend this to anyone wanting a casual dining experience.
Went on Saturday in the early afternoon. The place was busy but service was great and the ambience was very relaxed and easy going. This isn’t dress up sort of seafood restaurant. Think more like Jimmy Buffett. It is an open floor plan that allow breezes to flow through. They can close it in if needed.I had a seafood gumbo that was fantastic. For an entree had the crab cakes which were the very good. I definitely recommend this restaurant if you’re in the Pensacola area.
Nice indoor, outdoor seating! Beautiful view of boat harbor and docks. Decent good. Ahi Tuna Sandwich was ordered rare and came Medium. Great fries though!
The view is great, but the rest is not. Very slow service at 3 p.m. on a Sunday when several tables are empty. One table is occupied by employees eating. Yes, workers deserve to eat too, but is it good p.r. for employees to be eating while customers go hungry? The food is very average. And then you need to wash your car because the place has a dusty dusty parking lot.
Nice atmosphere. Unfortunately the wait staff was unorganized. Finally was able to get drinks. Good was ok. Maybe best for a beer and hanging out
The only reason I gave as high as 2.0 rating was the atmosphere. Although the overhead fans were blowing so high that our napkins kept flying onto the floor. Eating outside on a breezy deck was half decent. When I went on a Monday evening, there were not many patrons in the restaurant. Although, the service was quite slow. Bar food was mediocre at best and typical, but not as good as expected. The waitress seemed hurried and didn’t listen very well, as I did not get exactly what I had ordered. She did offer a replacement, then hurried off not waiting for my answer. If i didn’t have other starving family members with me, I would have sent my horrible frozen fries and soggy flavorless fish sandwich back. The food took forever to arrive for something quite simple, about 30 minutes. For the quality of the food, the prices were a little high. I would have expected better. Reminded me of Shaggy’s. I should have gone there. At least they would have had better food and better service. I will not be back here again.
