Used to be a great night spot, but it is so close to the marina that the people living on boats have complained about noise and it is much more toned down now. Good place for a mid day mojito if you are walking around downtown. Good views and nice crowd, although a little older lately. more

Instead, we followed the sound of reggae over to Fresco's. Unfortunately, our experience was not a great way to end our trip. When we asked the band if they could possibly... more

Fresco's (the old Black Opal) is a pure treat for those looking for great, imaginative food and a fun, relaxed atmosphere. I hadn't been to this place in quite some time, and a lot of changes have been made. Great wines, entertainment on the weekends, and the new chef have really made a big difference here. On the visits I've... more
