    Tables are in very poor shape. Ours was very worn plywood with bird droppings. Service was on island time which was fine but orders were incorrect and waiter seemed to have trouble focussing. Prices were much too high for the quality, portion size and ambience.

    I went for breakfast early which is a norm for me. No one was there and had the pancakes which were wonderful. Waiter was great and just a relaxing atmosphere. After walked right over to feed the fish and walked the grounds. I know for me I do not like big crowds. I cannot comment on later in day as I was not there but could imagine during season it's more crowded. Great experience for if you stay in area or passing through.

    Food was okay. Grouper sandwich had little taste. The Mahi Mahi tacos tasted good , but very salty. Dinner time during holiday week, it was pretty empty

    My husband ordered Mahi mahi tacos with a flour tortilla and they made it with corn instead. I had two sources hype this place up, so we thought it would be upscale, especially for the price. It was more like a dive. We won’t be going back.

    The service was GREAT and our waiter was very informative and on top of things. The fish and chips were good and fish tacos were awesome. It is outside seating so it can get nippy if the wind picks up so bring a light sweater or windbreaker.
