    Ceviche was ok. Nothing special. Ravioli tasted really good. Steak was overcooked. Chicken fingers didn’t taste well. The best was desert Deep Fried Oreo cookies with ice cream.

    Staff worked together on the serving process in which we had 2 servers and others delivering the food and they would take it from there. They were attentive without overdoing it. Pleasant and knowledgeable. The appetizer was bang bang shrimp, and really set the table for things to come. It was delicious. We then ordered our entrees which we had chosen from the specials, salmon and the snapper, which were both amazing. Drinks were a challenge since there was so much to chose from. The selection of beer was second to none on the island, (or anywhere else). For the dinner, our server paired a wonderful white wine with my wife’s salmon. After a nice IPA before dinner, I turned to the breaking bad mojito and was not disappointed. We highly recommend this restaurant and since we are here yearly, we will frequently come back.

    Very nice but a definite tourist trap. Almond grouper was very good and tenderloin was cooked perfect. Dessert was delicious. We had coconut cake with Rocky road gelato. Our server kept disappearing so a little annoying but overall good.

    The setting was really unique. The drink menu was elaborate. The food was good but nothing spectacular in my opinion. The staff was very friendly.
