Marina View Restaurant Tiki Bar

The interior didn’t quite match the appeal of the photos we saw. While we enjoyed some good cocktails, we were disappointed to find broken shell pieces in all 12 of the oysters we ordered. We arrived around 3:30 PM, and the restaurant was mostly empty, with just two other tables occupied. Despite this, we were told that they had reservations and had to sit at the bar. Interestingly, a couple walked in 30 minutes after us, without a reservation, and were given a table by the window. We ended up sitting at the bar for over two hours and noticed that no one else at the supposedly ‘reserved’ tables was attended to. On a positive note, the bartender was very friendly.

I had a disappointing experience at this restaurant. The waitress was rude, which set a negative tone for our meal. The prices are extremely high for the quality of food served. While the food was okay, it certainly wasn't good enough to justify the cost. For instance, paying $16 for just three crab cakes was frustrating, especially since I could barely taste any crab; they seemed to be mostly filler. To make matters worse, they even forgot about our appetizer. Overall, I can't recommend this place.

The service is exceptional and the cleanliness is noteworthy! The menu is excellent, and the chefs are clearly passionate, serving some of the best dishes I've had anywhere. The view of the sound is stunning, and the outdoor Tiki Bar is a fantastic addition. I will definitely be coming back!

We had a delightful evening by the sea. The service was impressive, especially considering the restaurant was understaffed; everyone really came together to help out. The pasta dishes were delicious. My only complaint was the music selection—rock radio? Really? Some yacht rock or a chill Spotify playlist would have been so much more enjoyable.

Fantastic dining experience! The view is stunning. The seafood pasta in garlic sauce was incredibly tasty. The portions are generous, and the food is perfectly seasoned—never overly salty.
