The iced coffee was very good but also expensive for what you get. Hank's was below average. The root beer flavor was almost nonexistent. Maybe the regular root beer would be better. We ordered the French dip with tots and the Feathered Philly with fries. We really liked the tots and French fries and would give them a 5 out of 5 stars. The beef on the French dip lacked flavor as did the au jus. The beef reminded us of sliced deli roast beef not something the was marinated in spices for a period of time. Would give the French dip 2.5-3 stars. The chicken and onions on the Feathered Philly were better. They were seasoned and hot off the grill. Would give them 3.5 stars. The hoagie buns were good but nothing to write home about. The ambiance is great! Love how the decorated the most place. They have a great outdoor area to have your meal and a great concert area. I bet this place is really a great time for live music. It's connected to / next to the Harley dealer so I'm sure the have a high number of bikes on weekends and for the concerts. Parking for cars is limited by the restaurant but the have a parking lot across the street. Plenty of bike parking.

Loved our visit to this beautiful restaurant! The inside is super bright and has these fun trees,…read morewe sat outdoors which has a nice sunset view over the nearby pond. The food was fantastic! We started with the blue crab and artichoke fondue which I would highly recommend. It was plenty to share and came with a few different dipping options. It was cheesy without being excessively heavy. I got the mussels and fries as my dinner. The mussels were good, very standard, no notes on them. The fries were particularly good though. They were perfectly crisp, very hot like they were made to order, and topped with a lovely sprinkle of parmesan and drizzle truffle aioli. Had I been exceptionally hungry I'm not sure if this would have been enough as an entree, but there were definitely plenty of mussels if you're looking for a lighter meal or to share amongst the table. The rest of my party got the grouper, miso cod, and wagyu flatiron. They all had nothing but good things to say about their meals. I tried the strawberry haze to drink. It wasn't my favorite but that was more due to personal preference than the preparation itself. I wasn't expecting the charred strawberry to come through in the way that it did. Our server was very nice and answered the few questions we had. I would absolutely come back here to try their other menu items.

She quickly recognized that my steak was overcooked and ensured it was remade, which was greatly appreciated. The food was good, and the service from our server truly stood out. However, what left a disappointing impression was that while we were still finishing our meal, the bartender turned the lights on, making us feel rushed to leave. Considering the cost of the meal, it would have been nice to enjoy the end of our dining experience without feeling pressured. Aside from the initial issue with the overcooked steak and the rushed ending, the experience was positive, and our server deserves recognition for her excellent customer service.

There are only 6 parking spots, lol, that go in one direction., so when you leave you have to back out. It's a pickle! I'm not sure where you park when this area is full. Cute, cozy, friendly spot full of locals relaxing and having drinks. I asked, wheres the grilled burgers? The lady replied, we haven't served burgers in weeks. However, you can buy a hot dog from their rotisserie. No thank you, this is not what I expected. They are Backyard Bar minus the Grill part. FIVE STARS because they are doing great as a local bar. I'm writing this review to update previous reviews ... and give you a heads up.

I looked at the outdoor bar but every single seat was taken. All the outdoor tables were booked. So I went inside and saw the inside bar was also full. A table for ten and a table for 6 had departed and needed to be bussed, but both were too much for just one person. So I checked in w the hostess and she asked - booth or table. I wanted table. I got a nice table by the river! Lovely views. Exactly what I wanted. Menus were dropped and soon, Sam was checking in on me. I was so hungry, I had looked at the menu and pics on my way there. I went for the crab cake appetizer and the Gold Wave cocktail. For my entree, I was torn between the Grouper Reuben and the Sea Dog (fried grouper on a long roll, topped with all sorts of goodness). Sam said grouper Reuben was his choice. He asked if I wanted grilled, blackened or fried. I told him to surprise me. For my side, I had the choice of (more) coleslaw (it has coleslaw instead of sauerkraut), fries, sweet potato fries, or a side house or Cesar salad for $4 more. I went w the house salad and their standard citrus vinaigrette. Salad and crab cake came out first. Salad was a huge portion- romaine (some pieces needed better washing), red onion galore, halved cherry tomatoes and cucumber slices. It was great, but needed croutons. The crab cake was the perfect size for one person. It had a whole grain mustard remoulade sauce. Yum! It had some filler but also had a lot of crab. I enjoyed it. The grouper Rueben came out hot!!!! Served with a side of coleslaw and a pickle. I added some needed salt. Boy that fish filet was huge. Sam had put it in grilled for me. Healthy. Nice. I ate half and then I was stuffed. I filled up on the salad and crabcake apparently. I enjoyed the views of boaters going by. It started to rain hard and the folks outside just stayed there. The overhang must've been protecting them well. My server, Sam, was around often to answer my questions. Apparently the grouper Reuben market price is only $21. And if you want redfish or mahi, the price is the same- $21! That's crazy. What a deal. The gold wave is made with Elijah Craig; Good ol Kentucky bourbon. And for dessert, they have cheesecake, peanut butter pie, mud pie, key lime pie, coconut sorbet and orange cake (which he says is a local favorite). I was too stuffed to buy but happy to hear the list. Overall I had a wonderful meal and service was really good. I would recommend adding croutons to the salad, and cleaning up the bathrooms regularly. This place ain't fancy. It's a dirt parking lot. The tables are naked. Folks come casual. However, the prices are great and the food does the talking. Come check them out.

We ordered an Arnold Palmer and a Ponce De Leon margarita, mozzarella sticks, shrimp basket, chicken fingers basket and (2) Florida orange cakes to go. Mozzarella sticks- average. Shrimp basket- good but tropical slaw was store bought with pineapple added. Chicken fingers- good not great, onion rings, good not great . Margarita- strong. Biggest problem- from 9-18 people just standing around talking, making staff walk around them. Other problems- some people just walk in past the front desk and just seat themselves ( the privileged). Total bill with tip $100 . Don't need to travel a half hour to just be ok. Won't be back.

I still love Fisherman's Village and it's been some time since I visited…read more When we visited was after Xmas, but I am still thinking about all things Xmas. It was a nice surprise to see how decked up Fisherman's Village is. Def a place to get into the Christmas spirit. So many decorations and fun photo ops everywhere. We walk throughout the area, the have lots of shops, cafe, ice cream and restaurants and a tiki bar. You can also take a sunset boat tour. They also have nice water views. This is def a great place to visit for all and especially at Xmas. A new restaurant is opening the second week of January 2026 too towards the very end after all the shops. Just keep on walking. This is also dog friendly so we are happy to walk our dog here. Half is shaded half not and there is plenty of free parking in the lot next to it. 4 stars bc prices can def be tourist prices.
