Ambience and view are excellent, food as well - early bird menu was great value. Service was a little off and website/menu/etc doesn’t mention that happy hour is only the bar area, otherwise would have been 5 stars.

The restaurant is in a old house on Long Boat Key. There is a big parking lot in the rear. The restaurant is much bigger than it looks. Enjoyed an elegant dinner with my wife. We had excellent drinks, martinis and old fashion. The fried green tomatoes were very good with a slight spicy taste. We enjoyed out Waldorf salad before dinner. I had the house speciality, the duck. It was really good, probably one of the best I've had before and I love duck. My wife greatly enjoyed her veal. We were so full we skipped the desert experience on the second floor. We have heard it is like the experience at Burns in Tampa but will need to experience on our next visit.
