We stopped in here after a wonderful dinner next door at Lido. The location is undeniably…read morebeautiful, set right on the water, but unfortunately the decor and ambiance fall noticeably short in comparison.
We had a group of 14, and despite the bar being mostly empty, the hostess would not allow us to split into two tables. Instead, she insisted we crowd around a single six top and move chairs ourselves, which left part of our group standing, leaning against walls, or waiting for space to sit.
Service was slow from the start. It took about 20 minutes for the waitress to take our drink order and another 20 minutes before drinks began to arrive. Given the delay, lack of seating, and overall disorganization, we decided not to order any late night food.
I ordered a margarita, and it was honestly one of the worst margaritas I've had. Very heavy on sweet and sour, clearly not made in house, with a weak pour. Prices felt steep for the quality being delivered.
Oddly enough, the highlight of the visit was people watching. The vibe is... strange. While waiting in line for the bathroom, someone who frequents the bar mentioned it's known locally as a swingers spot. The crowd skewed heavily 60+, but hey, whatever works.
If you're in the area, I'd strongly recommend heading next door to Lido for a far better experience in terms of atmosphere, service, and drinks.
