Waterway Cafe impresses with its "beautifully redone" ambiance and "excellent service." Diners appreciate the "great food," especially seafood and unique dishes like Pistachio Crusted Grouper. While prices are higher and parking a challenge, the "stunning" waterfront views and "amazing setting" make it a desirable spot for special occasions.

    Food was terrific. The look of the place is wonderful.we ate at the bar which was busy and had to wait a bit longer for our food to be served but that was ok. The only real issue was the car valet. Coming in and leaving we had to wait. There were only 2 people working and they were over extended. Need more people so there’s not that level of congestion in front of the restaurant. But the new Waterway has a terrific look and feel.

    The rebirth of this place is quite spectacular. Not only has the facelift added to the waterside ambience but equally impressive is the attention to detail in their menu additions. Pricey but worth it. Valet parking is a fire drill that needs attention.

    Love the complimentary valet parking and the personal waitstaff service. Waited 10 minutes at outdoor table before it was noticed that no one was assigned to our table but after that all was well and excellent service. Beautiful outdoor experience. Classy, fun interior. Recommend reservation

    Waterway Cafe has been around for many years. The recently remodeled and reopened and the results are amazing. The bar is large, open and accommodating. There is indoor and outdoor seating. The view is over the intercoastal waterway which is quite nice, especially when the boats go by. The service was excellent and the food was very well prepared with great presentation. My scallops were delicious, perfectly cooked and served over a bed of teriyaki rice with mixed vegetables. Their smoked fish dip appetizer was also delicious and shareable. I will return soon and tell my friends.
