I really enjoyed this place. The outside patio has a fun tropical vibe. The margaritas were surprisingly delicious and they were also bogo. The lobster was a little dry but all in all was very good. Definitely worth a visit.

Cozy warerfront place with a nice indoor and outdoor area. They have a little shop, candy and fudge, ice cream, and maybe even and event area. Come feed the fish. I had a turkey club and it was not deli turkey as it had these huge pieces of meat in there. Very nice place.

Great food, service, and view. The corned beef has is some of the best I’ve ever had. They make it with mashed new potatoes. Yum! I highly recommend trying the baked beans with any breakfast dish you choose. So good

I loved this place. Great atmosphere, gift shop area has unique gifts that are affordable, staff is friendly, and the place is clean. The only issue I had was my food was gone when I returned from the restroom. I only ate half my sandwich. We had a large party and overall the waitress did great. My local FL family frequently goes here and they love this place. Highly recommended!!

**My pics are from the area out the back door!! Make sure you check it out and feed the turtles!! 🐢🙂
