Saturday around 1pm we wanted a place for brunch. Wanted outside seating as, even though it was…read morehot, there was a nice breeze and wanted to enjoy the beautiful day we were having. My fiancé suggested Banana Boat, as he had seen review on the Next-Door app, and I realized I had it bookmarked. It looked busy, all self-parking was full, but they have free (with tip) valet, and that was easy and quick. They have the inside bar and inside seating, then the outside "patio" style tables plus the outside bar. We found some open spots and got our menus. Service, even seating at the bar was a bit slow, but very friendly. When we ordered the drinks, these came rather fast but had to wait a bit longer than should have to place our food order. The food was great! The coconut shrimp was perfectly coated and fried. I had the fish and chips and loved how flaky the fish was, and that it was not overly breaded or greasy. But the winner was the Seafood au Gratin dish. This came out bubbling hot, as it should be. Lots of good seafood in lobster, shrimp, scallops with vegetables and the parmesan sauce is amazing. You get a side with it, and we were recommended the rice which went perfectly with this dish. We had a great time there, great relaxed atmosphere and will definitely be back.

It couldn't have been a better time at Banana Boat today…read more I had heard of this place through the grapevine. When I circled back looking at it yesterday morn we decided to pop up and check it out. It's a valet only place, free with tip. After a quick exchange with a nice guy taking the keys we walked into the welcoming entry. We saw the nice bar but I thought I saw a picture of a outside bar online. The hostess confirmed it, and pointed us to the outside spot. We lucked out with a couple spots right on the water. It was a warm day but the spots at the bar were covered thank goodness. We got lunch, which was pretty good. My gals fish and chips felt a little undercooked to me. But my Seafood au gratin was exquisite. We both agreed it was top notch. The drinks were darn good, with the standout being the Key Lime pie martini. It was a little pricey, but it felt darn near worth it with the good vibes we had. We will be ack son I think, to see if we can have an even better time.

The big pluses are the great view and the fun picnic benches to sit on. We also love feeding the fish when we first come in. I always find the staff friendly and on their game. The drink menu is fun and they have some yummy cocktails. The menu is pretty seafood heavy but they have enough other options if you aren't a fish or shellfish person to satisfy. We had the tuna tacos which were super dry and tasteless, the po boy which was also extremely dry and lacking sauce and tasteless, Ahi tuna dinner entrée (cook cooked perfectly, but also barely any flavor) and two appetizers, which were the star. Both the calamari and the chicken wings were on point. Everything else so disappointing. With enough new restaurants in the area this unfortunately was my last time.

Dj Mike played music for the kids for about an hour then the vibes began. Bartenders were both sweethearts. I started with a strawberry margarita and chilled until happy hour which was amazing. Wings portions are smaller so I split an order of coconut shrimp with fries, garlic Parmesan and lemon pepper wings with someone. Food was absolutely delicious and seasoned well. They didn't have egg white for clover club cocktail so I tried to just order Gin and raspberry on happy hour but got charged regular price. Didn't make a big deal as one of the gals was new and super nice. About 6ish Dj mike ramped up the dancehall and reggae vibes along with the line dances. It was a blast and definitely much better than NYE which had a live band that played music for a more mature crowd. I plan on returning for another Sunday funday as the patrons and staff are fantastic.

This is a beautifully laid out rooftop bar and lounge that sits on the corner of Atlantic and federal highway, with a beautiful view of the beach and water, and cant forget the palm trees. They have 3 unisex bathrooms and fire pits laid out for the chiller days. We ordered some short rib tacos and a cheese plate to go with our drinks. Our waiter, Glenn was fantastic, very attentive and constantly came over to our section. Food came out quickly and was just what we needed to enhance our experience. The live music was the real key for me here, The act was fantastic, he had people dancing and singing along, took requests and put his own flair some classic songs.

They have a really nice outdoor seating area,complete with heaters when needed. We chose to dine inside. The vibe inside the restaurant was kind of a boho rustic feel, and I really liked it. Soft lighting and music really set the tone. We were immediately greeted by our server, Gustavo, and given our menus. We don't drink, but they had a nice selection of drinks, cocktails and spirits. We decided to start with the sweet and sour cauliflower. It was absolutely delicious! Cauliflower battered and fried and tossed in a sweet and sour sauce. For our entree we shared the 44oz Creekstone ribeye. It was served with charred broccolini and and a fried airy potato side dish that was out of this world! The steak came sliced and off the bone, so it was perfect for sharing. It was served with 3 toppings; a horseradish sauce, a balsamic glaze, and delicious mixture of sliced peppers. Our steak was cooked perfectly, and seasoned well. We did not have dessert there, as we had a birthday cake at home. And I feel remiss that I didn't even look to see what they had. Overall, it was the perfect place to have a romantic, celebratory dinner! Thanks Driftwood. *Just a Note ~ I found it odd they added a 20% tip on a 2 top table, and I was glad I noticed it on the bill before we double tipped.

A few of the things I liked.. - Fruit juice used for mixers is made in-house fresh daily. The drinks are creative and made well. - The sweet and sour cauliflower, the sliders, the chicken and dumplings. - Servers are always knowledgeable and attentive - indoor and outdoor seating with fans on a warm day. Upscale vibe with dim lighting. - plenty of parking A few I didn't.. - The fish dip was just ok - the fried part of the southern fried chicken while juicy on the inside, lacked flavor - the up charge for almond vanilla milk in the espresso martini without being told up front of the added cost -the steak tartare happy hour portion is 1 bite-sized piece. Just offer the normal sized portion for a reduced happy hour price as opposed to 1/4th the portion for 1/3rd the price. Overall I would say every experience is good but not great. I would recommend giving this restaurant a try and seeing if you agree with my review.
