    I have been to Waterbury many times. I will not be there again. $20 Burger and fries was just ok. Fries were limp and greasy, not edible. My wife ordered grouper tacos, almost no grouper and all breading. If you're going to make high-end burgers and tacos they should be good. Neither were. The best thing we had all night was an appetizer of muscles. $100 later and we felt like we didn't get any good food. Add to that four dogs in the restaurant. Unfortunate.

    Looking for a quiet spot to enjoy a meal by the water? This is the place. We dined at lunch and enjoyed the ambiance. Our food was excellent and the service was too. The only complaint we have is that we were limited to a lunch menu. Might I suggest you also have the dinner menu available for those who wish it like other restaurants do.

    It took over two hours for us to have our meal, we had to ask for a server and it was still several minutes before they came.

    Parking is a challenge. Food was good but not great for the price. Cocktails were very good.

    Our server was very slow and had an abrasive manner. Beautiful view of the water. Pecan crusted amberjack was overcooked, dry and tough. The pecan crust was too thick and tasted blah. Hardly any burre blanc sauce to cover over the dry fish. The key lime pie was gritty and left an odd taste and mouth feel. The lobster ravioli was very tasty. We wouldn’t recommend.

    Had a great Valentine dinner here. Sat outside with a great view of the river. Our server, Brie, was outstanding! We're from Orlando, so whenever we're in Tampa it will be our go to place.
