    Have eaten here several times and it is always outstanding. Glad they reopened after the damage from the hurricane. Menu is always interesting, food excellent, service excellent (Chris was our latest waiter), table by the water gives excellent view even of the Osprey nest not far away. Though "pricey", it is always an exceptional experience and one we always remember and look forward to.

    What a beautiful place to celebrate any special event. The service was top notch our server Julia was so attentive and pleasant she made the night more enjoyable. The food was delicious everyone at the table was pleased. The chicken, duck, steak, fish and meatloaf all was cooked to perfection. I believe this was the first restaurant we went to where not a single dish received a complaint. Even the pickiest eaters had nothing negative to say. Thank you so much for an amazing experience.

    We were immediately impressed when we walked into NEAT. The restaurant is part of a very nice string of stores with an extremely well-lit and well landscaped parking lot. The decor was really thoughtful and high-end. Each piece of artwork that was on the wall was beautifully framed and perfectly aligned. The colors in rich browns and black felt sophisticated and polished. The menu is forward thinking, with some fun new takes on classic dishes: we had wonderful hamburgers that were cooked perfectly, but they came on a brioche bun and there were about 20 different things that you could add in a make your own including a wonderful horseradish topping. There were a lot of other great things that you could add, such as avocado. The servers were super nice and friendly. The establishment was also extremely clean, as were the bathrooms. The manager is very accessible and came around to ask us how our meal was. Our servers checked on us several times to make sure we were ok, more than the average restaurant, and we appreciated it. The prices are extremely reasonable considering how upscale the meals and menu felt. I would definitely come back again and bring friends.
