My husband and I ate here on a rainy Tuesday afternoon. We were unable to sit on the deck (of course), which took away from the experience. The inside of the restaurant is sparsely decorated and could use some sprucing up. The service leaves a little to be desired, but the wait staff seems friendly enough. When we arrived, it... more

This place is in dire need of updating. It's an old place that feels dated. The walls and ceilings look like they have the original paint from the days when you could smoke in restaurants. Yuck. I was sorely disappointed in the food. I've been here several times so it's not just a one time thing that my meal wasn't... more

My husband and I are from Houston and we traveled to Cocoa Beach to stay prior to a cruise out of Port Canaveral. We were really looking forward to the fresh Atlantic seafood and did our research on the restaurants through Trip Advisor. I was particuarly wanting Lobster as it is so expensive here in Houston.

I can't get enough of their rock shrimp. The salad bar is fantastic and the wait staff is outstanding. I can't say enough about this place. I like... more

We dined here twice during our week long vacation, absolutely wonderful! more

Well.... the location is great. We sat on the deck along the Banana River, the sun was setting as we were finishing dinner. The catfish along the deck and pier were a hoot. It was wild watching them swimming and jumping in these huge masses of catfish. Our waiter was friendly, but it took a while till we got the... more
