Most Disliked
Some guests have mentioned occasional wait times during peak dining hours, particularly on busy Friday nights. Despite the lively tiki bar atmosphere being a highlight for many, a few guests find it too noisy, making conversation challenging. A handful of diners noted that while most dishes are impressive, certain items, especially on the daily specials menu, may vary in quality. Staff availability during rush hours can sometimes lead to a wait for service, which detracts from the otherwise pleasant experience.

This was a great find by my sister that resides in the Boynton Beach area. The Friday specials are a fantastic value that are worth the price. My wife and I had the fried shrimp basket that included some of the best fries ever and four gigantic butterfly shrimp as shown. My sister had the Fish Ruben that was blackened. We started with there signature Fish chowder in red stock. “Manhattan Style “ as shown. Very tasty and plenty of fish ! Almost a meal in itself. We were seated on the patio section. There isa great bar area and inside main dining room area. I highly recommend this restaurant. It’s a short drive off I-95 Hypoluxo exit 60 Lake Worth Florida Enjoy the food!🍱

Good place to dock your boat and eat some food when around Lake Ida. Plates are big. I recommend the Philly Cheesesteaks. Kids loved the Mac N Cheese!

This was the first place we stopped on our vacation away from Ohio. I had the Blackened Chicken Nachos, and she has the AYCE Fish Fry. Both were delicious and a huge portion. Def would like to return again to try the other menu offerings.

My first time there, wanted to check the place out after some people recommended it. The outside patio was lively and jumping, so I ventured to the inside bar hoping for a bar seat and to enjoy air conditioning. I sat down in the only empty bar seat and was immediately welcomed by Amanda. She was extremely attentive, energetic, and engaging right out of the gate. She introduced herself, gave me a brief run down of the Friday specials and was very quick with my drink order. I’m without a doubt returning in the future solely because of how impeccable her hospitality skills were. Hands down one of, if not the best service industry personalities I’ve ever encountered. Hats off to her and hope to see her again, absolutely created my appreciation of the establishment.

We had a party of 8 on a Saturday night and was seated after only about 15 minutes. Great service! Food was really good. With our large party we tried several different dishes and no one had any complaints. Portions are huge! I split the chicken alfredo and it was plenty for both of us with leftovers to take home. We tried the wings for an appetizer and the spinach dip - both delicious!
