This time was terrible the waitress was rude, slamming glasses in her table, having issues with our order and it took over an hour to get to get our food and which is very unusual for this restaurant I saw, and we saw other people getting their food that came there after us and seemed like our waitress put her own later, and she just seemed to have an attitude, not smiling and every time we ask for something it was like a problem. Her name was Jenna B. As soon as we arrived she had an attitude. We will go again, but hopefully we won't get this waitress. I wouldn't recommended anyone. Thank you the Bragg family Pensacola Florida. We come here multiple times a year. I love this place.

The bartender made a very refreshing one! His lemonade needed a little more sweetness. The plates were made to share, so we agree on the tartare, tomato salad, and NY steak. Everything was delicious and beautifully plated! The tomato salad was light- it had a nice mustard and olive vinaigrette dressing. For dessert, we chose the burnt basque cheesecake! He liked it more than regular cheesecake. This one was a good one, as I've been searching for an authentic one that wasn't too burnt LOL. I could do without the olive oil on this one though. Overall, I had a really nice time here and can't wait to come back to try their other menu items.

For dinner I ordered the tri-tip sando. It was excellent but the chimichurri was a bit too strong so I wasn't able to taste much of anything else...the hubs liked it more than I did. The hubs ordered the Pig burger. Two patties...one beef and one pork with bacon jam, white cheddar and bread/butter pickles. The patties were cooked perfectly and the sweet bacon jam was a perfect addition (I'll be ordering this next visit) Both sandwiches came with thin sliced fries. We sat at the bar and Sean was again our server...very attentive and friendly!

This restaurant came highly recommended with an enticing menu that sounded exceptional…read more Unfortunately, the reality was a major letdown. The online descriptions appear to be heavily embellished (likely AI-generated), promising far more than what arrives at the table. The steak was noticeably low quality, and the cioppino, advertised with fresh bread, fish, and pasta, tasted like watered-down Campbell's soup concentrate. To make matters worse, the bathroom was filthy. While our waiter was genuinely nice, the food was a huge disappointment. For the price, it was frustrating and disheartening to pay premium rates for such a poor experience. We cannot recommend this place and will not be returning.

Mocktails were overly sweet for my liking Service was prompt Only thing is that the indoor restaurant had poor circulation, we were there around 6pm and it was warm and there was no air even when they opened the windows and bathroom was unkept

They didn't have reservations but we came early enough and got seated right away. By the time we left there were people waiting. For appetizers we got asparagus fries, came with 6 asparagus, and the tuna tartare. The asparagus fries were delicious but for $15 and only 6, it's $2.50 a piece. Not a good value but delicious. The tuna tartare was good too. We enjoyed the apps. For entrees I got their bistro plate, it came with a 4oz filet, soup of the day and a salad. My friends got the chicken piccata and a Thai salad. The bistro plate is a great deal. The filet was cooked perfectly to a medium rare and nicely char, however it didn't have any flavor. They did not even salt it. Otherwise it was perfect, they had some table salt that I was able to add. If they seasoned just a little it would have been perfect. But better no salt then salty. My friend's piccata was amazing. Probably the best chicken piccata that we've ever had! Plenty of chicken too. We ended with the butter cake and it was a good ending! So delicious. Cocktails were spot on. For the most part everything was really good and I would come back to try other items.

I instantly set a reservation (didn't really need it) and we arrived around 4pm on a Tuesday and sat on the patio. Happy hour is daily from 4-6pm and if you sit on the recently renovated patio, drinks are 50% off. I ordered the Ribeye as my birthday entree and we also ordered the Fried Zucchini ($7), Popcorn Chicken ($9), Guajillo Braised Pork Shoulder ($21) and several cocktails ($7 each during HH). Everything was great honestly. No complaints. My wife REALLY loved the braised pork shoulder. My steak was excellent and even though it was free, $32 for a ribeye is the lowest you'll find anywhere. It was nice having not having to fight for a seat. Enjoying a cocktail on the patio in perfect weather is something everyone should try.

I wanted to go there for the longest especially for Happy Hour. When I got up there, I was amazed at the ocean views and pleasantly surprised it wasn't crowded during this beauuutiful late afternoon. I picked my spot to sit then stood in line while looking over the front-n-back menu. Everything sounded good but I wanted something fresssh and summery. The friendly staff was very knowledgeable about the menu and helpful in my decision to keep it Summer related. Not too long afterwards, my order came out. Looove the quick service! Both female bartenders were slaying it as soon as the line grew. It was niiice to see the world cup on the t.v. screen. I enjoyed watching it while I ate my yummy food and watched the magical sunset.

Highly recommend making reservation so you can sit on their sun patio and enjoy the views. They have a great menu, it's very beach chic so no need to dress up extra fancy just avoid beach wear, flip flops and tank tops. The food has always been excellent, no complaints at all, it's always just the service. This time around I asked player 2 if our waitress was having a bad day as soon as she came to the table. Dinner will run you about 200$ or more but it's worth it. We did the steak and sea for 2, plus the large seafood tower. Taste was phenomenal and their mash potatoes hit every single time! So good. If you're in the area and want to celebrate anything, including being on the beach. Enjoy a swim with the ocean friends and then eat some later lol.

All the staff could not have been nicer or more pleasant, they genuinely seemed happy to be there, from the hostesses to the servers. I love that they're open all day long with no break in between lunch and dinner, so this is my new go-to lunch/supper spot. The only drawback that I could see is the metered parking outside, but I hear there's a lot in the back that only charges five dollars.
