After searching for what felt like forever to find a highly recommended spot -- even Port A Escapes…read morelisted this place as a must‑try -- we decided to give it a shot. I've traveled all over the world and up and down the U.S. coastline, and I understand beach‑town dining can be hit or miss. But this experience left us genuinely confused about the glowing reviews. We walked into a tiny establishment where the bar was fully staffed and drinks were flowing, yet we couldn't even get served food. Alcohol seemed ready to go, but the kitchen was moving at a pace that made no sense. We were told food would take over an hour. For a place this small, that's baffling. It made me wonder if the rave reviews were written through "vacation goggles" -- sunburned, tired, or a few drinks in -- because from our sober perspective, nothing about the service or setup matched the hype. Maybe the "excellent" part of the name refers strictly to the bar, because the grill definitely felt off‑duty. We ended up leaving without ever getting food. Not the experience we were hoping for.

They offer draft beer and setups, so you bring your own liquor. Free popcorn and coffee are a nice bonus, and there's also a jukebox. Parking is accessible, with ramps to both the front and rear entrances. Inside, there are two pool tables, two shuffleboard tables, and video poker. Everyone was friendly, the beer was cold, and I'll definitely be coming back. Photos taken at the end of the night, right before closing.

I believe they may have been a little understaffed and everyone was really nice about it but we ordered food and drinks or drinks came and our food never came in fact three other tables came in after us waited for a seat. Got a seat ordered food and drinks and got food and left before we were addressed about. The food isn't ready yet. I'm normally not wanting to complain, but this was kind of ridiculous. I wish I could say I had great service cause I had this place up. But seeing how we didn't even get to eat and had to go somewhere else and start over, sucks. The atmosphere is great and the location is really close to the beach there's TVs all around to watch sports and small bar area to sit down and they make their own pizzas with a real fire oven. Probably pretty good. I don't know though didn't get to try it. I'm sure one day I'll give it another chance.
