What Teresa T likes about Open Water Grill:
Nicely done! If I had read the reviews before getting to this restaurant, we might have stayed away. Glad we didn't.

What Jerry Wright doesn't like about Open Water Grill:
Very disappointing experience, service was poor and food took forever to come out. Took 45 minutes to get a diet Coke and a second beer.

Sad thing is it wasn't busy, but we were told they only have one cook. View all feedback.
