    Food and service were really good. We ate outside and took a couple pictures off the docs. It’s a little pricey, but in keeping with other restaurants on the island.

    Large, professionally run restaurant with beautiful water views, a solid menu and reasonable prices. Probably the best fine dining option on Captiva at the moment.

    Food was great, but the server rushed us. Brought our appetizers out with our food. It would have been better if we could have relaxed eating our food.
