The outdoor area with sand is a lot of fun, especially during bonfire nights. The indoor space is also impressive—very clean and decorated in a lively style. I've tried different dishes each time I've visited, and I've thoroughly enjoyed everything!

Love the beach area bar with amazing drinks thar are fair priced, the lights, liver music, all around can't wait to be back. A must visit. Only downside is you have to pay for parking in that area.

The sauted scallops included six scallops of varying sizes and were cooked with peppers and onions. They were excellent. The sweet potato wedges were a side option but could have been a dessert. They were deliciously sweet--almost like a French toast stick. Considering the small number of patrons on a Thursday evening, I would have expected more attentive service for a party of our size. Although we lingered after the meal, no effort was made to remove dishes or clear the table for after dinner drinks or dessert. I guess the server was satisfied with the automatic 18% gratuity for parties of 6 or more and didn't feel the need to work for anything. Their website also states that they charge a 3.9% processing fee if you pay with a credit card. The location is beautiful right on the river, and the view is wonderful. I would return again to see how a second visit goes.
