Great restaurant, delicious food and fantastic view over Sarasota Bay. Also has unique contemporary decor with cool canoes and kayaks (most of them wooden) hanging over the ceiling. Though it's not on the menu, if you eat a vegetarian diet, ask for veggie tacos, they are great!

My husband and I were celebrating my birthday. It was our first time there. We absolutely loved everything. The food was amazing. The best crab cakes ever. The view was out of this world gorgeous. The service was beyond great it was excellent !!!! We stopped in the day before to check it out. They were so nice letting us check everything out before hand. We would definitely recommend this place. It will always be top on our list every time we come down. I might just have to see about getting the crab cakes shipped to Ohio fo... read more

Food was great, we got right in and there is a nice view of the water with fans blowing on us to keep us cool on a hot summers night. Highly recommend.

Really good food and the service was great as well. Grilled red snapper, blackened grouper, and calamari were outstanding. Great view on the covered patio.
