The restaurant wasn't crowded but was definitely more full than I would expect at that hour. The entrance gave very Miami vibes with the palm trees, string lights, and faux grass. We opted to sit outside and were glad we did, they have a very long dock with plenty of seating where you get to view the marina. You are definitely paying for the ambiance and the ability to smell the fresh ocean breeze. We decided to order cocktails and a bunch of apps to share. I was disappointed to find out that they ran out of the liquor they needed for the Lychee Beach cocktail. I hope they were able to restock before the dinner crowd. We got a dozen of the beach blondies which were very fresh and tasted of the ocean in a good way. You could tell the calamari was not frozen and fried fresh as it was crispy with the perfect amount of breading. The Korean BBQ wings tasted more like regular BBQ sauce and the crab cake was a bit on the small side. They did not skimp on the mushrooms on the mushroom flatbread pizza, which I feel like is hard to find. The main reason I took off a star is because service was slow and it was because our server was taking a break while we were dining. Let me be real, there is nothing wrong with taking a break but at least get another server to sub in. We could visibly see her standing to the side eating her lunch as we dined.

The menu was large and we had two options as part of a food tour I was on. I was able to try the scarpariello wings and boardwalk pizza. The wings were wood-fired with their special blend of seasoning and sauce along with cherry peppers. These were really tasty. The wings were a good size and the chicken fell right off the bone. The sauce had a slight kick to it with the cherry peppers present. The wood aspect of this dish was very noticeable too. The boardwalk pizza had house-made chorizo sausage, green pepper, onion, parmesan, Pomodoro, oregano, and red pepper flakes. This was alright. The crust was a little underdone for me, so it was a little flabby. The chorizo was the best part. I feel like jalapenos would have been a better choice of pepper here. The sauce was light and appetizing too. I also had a piece of bread that came out warm and paired nicely with the sauce from the wings. I was glad bread was provided to soak up that sauce! Will I go back? Probably.

    Outstanding food and service. We tried the calamari and it was the best calamari I ever had. Wide…read moreselection of burgers and entrees. Parking lot is a bonus. Friendly service, and very nice ambience. Definitely worth the $$$ priced menu.

If you're a seafood lover, I recommend starting off with the charred octopus or the shrimp fritters.The octopus was tender, smoky and perfectly charred. The shrimp fritters were golden and crispy filled with delicious, juicy shrimp. You also have to try the spicy tuna hand roll. Fresh, silky tuna with a kick of spice, perfectly wrapped in crisp seaweed--this hand roll is a must for sushi lovers. The dry aged cowboy ribeye steak was unbelievable. With every mouthwatering bite I found myself just wanting more. It was honestly one of the best steaks I've ever had. The golden, buttery scallops melted in my mouth with every bite, paired with ultra-creamy goat cheese polenta for the ultimate indulgence. An irresistible dance of flavors made for sharing. We topped off the night with this decadent, warm brownie crowned with silky ice cream--an intimate finish that's both rich and irresistibly smooth. I cannot confirm nor deny that we finished the whole skillet. Service was very attentive and friendly and the atmosphere is upscale and sleek. This is a great place for an intimate date night, classy girls night out, or sophisticated celebration.

There were very few diners inside and hardly any employees around, yet our waiter barely stopped by our table. He never even checked to see if anyone wanted another drink.The food was incredibly disappointing. We ordered the salmon--which comes with shaved fennel, smashed potato, and a lemon and mustard seed vinaigrette--along with a few other items. Every single main dish, including both the salmon and the scallops, was severely overcooked, completely dry, and lacked any real flavor. We also tried the filet sandwich, but it was mostly just a mountain of bread wrapped around a tiny, sparse amount of meat.For the price and the setting, the execution just isn't there. We won't be returning.

My husband and I went on a Sunday and started with the coconut shrimp special. It was amazing! Crispy, citrusy, and full of pineapple flavor. The sauce and garnish were perfect together. For our meals, I ordered The Joey and my husband had The Grandpa Joey. Both were incredible. The Joey has crispy chicken cutlet, provolone, baby arugula, tomato, pesto aioli, and balsamic on seeded Italian bread. The Grandpa Joey takes it up a notch with sopressata, roasted peppers, fresh mozzarella, and all the Joey goodness combined. Every bite was packed with flavor. The staff was absolutely wonderful, so friendly and attentive. And to top it off, the shopping in the same center is amazing. Anthropologie and Free People are right there, which is basically my dream combo! We left full, happy, and already planning when to come back. Great food, great atmosphere, great people... and great shopping after lunch!

The whole operation is just done so well. The food preparation is excellent. And all the different nutrients that they provide! In the service by all the volunteers. So hard-working and the kindest of smilesl Genuine care for us all. The menu is presented, and you can order an appetizer, an entrée, and a dessert.

My salmon dish was so plentiful. I did have to have a box for 1/2 of it. If you were interested in additional JBJ Soul Kitchen items like shirts, coffee, cups, travel tumblers they have them available. And you can always leave a little extra for them to pay forward. I'm very grateful to all the people that made this day so special. And I understand that every day they do these kind hearted magical things! But it is quite wonderful to be in the presence of kindness in motion. Thanks to all the people that make it possible from the delivery drivers, servers cooks, the managers, some organizers, the farmers and the farm workers. The people who answer emails and telephones. So many countless kind hearted people who work for the benefit of everyone. Thank you dearly.

We got there on a Friday eventing at 5. Knowing that they don't take reservations and that there aren't that many tables we wanted to make sure that we would get a table. It is a lovely place run by lovely attentive volunteers. The whole backstory and the good they are doing goes beyond what the food tastes like. The restaurant asks for food donations (suggested $30 per person) for a 3 course meal but if you can't afford to pay you can volunteer some time for your food as well. So several tables are filled with homeless men and women who were also dining there. The appetizer and entree were tasty but the dessert (a chocolate brownie) was a bit hard and stale. Overall it was a wonderful experience that everyone should go to at least once.
