Very good service and food. The calamari and gumbo were perfectly cooked. Just enough spices. My son got the kids spaghetti very happy that there were other options besides the normal kids menu items.

Stopped in after a day of shopping. The place was not very busy so there was no wait time. Our server seemed like he liked his job because he was very upbeat and he knows the menu very well. Delicious food.

Great food and service, the best crab dip and the pita chips are very fresh. The Port St. Joe salad comes full and is very filling.

The day was beautiful and the deck seating made our lunch very appealing, the sea air while eating our Po Boy’s brought back memories of our childhood.

A full day at the beach and then a wonderful early dinner with some great food and the best part (besides the food) is we didn’t have to get dressed up and the sand stuck on our feet wasn’t frowned upon.

Our waiter was a nice young man, he did not seem to mind that we wanted to sit inside but at a table near the opened windows and he made sure that we had a great view of the pier. He also did not mind all the questions I had asked and made some very good suggestions. I am not a fan of gumbo but for 29 cents to was a good choice and went very well with my shrimp alfredo.

I was not sure about the Crab and shrimp pasta but I glad that I did try it. The cream sauce dances in your mouth and adds a twist to the crab which I personally would not have put together but am glad they did. It is wonderful.

Just OK

This place had a great view of gulf while you ate. They had a big seafood selection but it was nothing spectacular. The was was ok and good. It was a little on the pricey side but I guess you are paying for the view.

My daughter and I had the luxury of a great dining experience on Wednesday. We went for lunch and they had a nice selection of lunch specials. We both ate for under $20 and the view from there deck was awesome. Our server was great! Our food came out quick and our drinks never were empty. I will definitely go back!

dissapointed

yes the view is great, pretty neat looking restaurant but unfortunately it lacked good food. The buffelo shrimp looked like a frozen bag of shrimp you buy from Walmart and it was drowned in too much hot sauce. We also ordered the crab dip which wasn't that great either but the pita bread they serve with it was stale and lacked flavor. The next day we were told by some Local friends that this place is a tourist trap.
