This lively eatery has a lot to offer. The atmosphere is trendy and casual, making it a great spot for both families and large groups. The restaurant's décor, featuring a 3,000-pound metal fish sculpture, adds a fun and playful touch. The service is generally top-notch, with many staff members receiving praise for their friendliness and attentiveness.The menu is quite diverse, with a range of seafood options, including blackened grouper, seafood burgers, and fish tacos. While some dishes, like the blackened grouper sandwich, are hits, others may be disappointing, such as the Coastal Clam Chowder, which was described as tasting like it was out of a bag. The restaurant's prices are relatively high, but the quality of the food and the overall experience seems to justify the cost.One area for improvement is the inconsistent flavor profiles of the dishes. While some reviewers loved the grouper tacos, others found them to be lacking seasoning. However, the restaurant's ability to accommodate large groups and its convenient location near the marina are definite positives.Overall, this eatery is a great choice for those looking for a fun and lively dining experience with good food and attentive service. While it may not be perfect, it's definitely worth a visit, especially for its unique atmosphere and diverse menu options.
