"I don't know why people use these platforms to spread stupidity and negativity, but it should be used to spread love and support and awesomeness. This was our first time to this restaurant and my wife does like to look at reviews, but I do not! My method is very simple.I try the place and I judged it for myself.
Hands down, this was one of the best meals I have had in a very long time. We had drinks, a main course, and even dessert. Everything was cooked perfectly and it was simply delicious. Thank you, and we will be back."

"Upon arrival, the ambiance is amazing. The staff both hostess and waiter were amazing. Our waiter explained the menu to us, and offered suggestions.
The food was delicious. This was our second time, and we tried a different dish, and the consistency of the food was impeccable.
I would suggestion this place to anymore that is looking for a cute intimate setting, along with great vibes and food."

"The food was good! Fresh salad!(Previously went to another restaurant and the salad was not fresh) The shrimp, lobster, and beef sirloin was cooked to perfection. Word of advice... If youre one of those Medium Rare people, let them know when you order the Surf and Turf. Very nice ambiance. I enjoyed being out on the water in a boat style restaurant. It rained, so we had to come inside. I went around 2pm on a weekday and nobody was there at the time, but more people started to come in around 4. Im sure this place gets packed, so my advice is to make reservations prior to your visit. Its definitely worth it. Id say this was the best restaurant we went to in Montego Bay! Great Staff!"
