Great bread for starters garlic and crispy with fresh marinara sauce. Ordered the pepperoni pizza with jalapeños it was nice and crispy with a great tasting dough and perfectly cooked crust. Love the bar area great TV to watch some sports. Great environment right next door to the lighthouse really cool views and neat lounge area inside the bar area with comfy chairs and different seating all over. Great place!!!!

You MUST try this beautiful establishment out. The atmosphere is so quaint, nice background music, tables are spaced out so you are not backed up to each other, and you can actually carry on a conversation with your party and not have to shout. The Cesar’s salad was so fully of flavor and so fresh. I got the Shrimp Carbonara it was amazing it left me speechless. It was absolutely delicious I wii definitely be back for more. Dad got the shrimp and grits and he loved it; I thought he was going to lick the bowl (I didn’t get a picture). Hubby got the spaghetti with meatballs and the meatballs were bursting with flavor. We will be back next trip in to town. Fantastic food, service, and atmosphere. ❤❤

Well, Dirty Al bought this place out and made the current owner a deal she couldn’t refuse. This restaurant will be closing its doors very soon. Needless to say, I really hate to be a downer, but holy crud. Today was completely horrible. The service was incredibly lacking. Zero refills on ice tea and coffee. $60.00 and didn’t even order alcohol. The food was ice cold . Its like nobody knew what to do! We have eaten here numerous times. Today was a complete Poop show. It’s a shame, this restaurant is normally very good We shall see what Dirty Al has up his sleeve. Plotted. Scouts Out.

Hidden Gem! The location is perfect if you’re visiting the lighthouse or out on a date. The food and atmosphere are amazing. Acoustic guitar and friendly service are on point. We will return in the future!

Awesome place to eat. They staff is great and very accommodating. One person in our party wanted a drink that was not on the menu. Our server made an off the menu suggestion which turned out to be great. Food is amazing. We made reservations which I would suggest if going on the weekend for dinner. Dress is casual. We will definitely eat here again on our next trip to SPI. Pictures are of the Diver Scallops w/Rissoto and Shrimp Carbonara.

Had a wonderful dinner in this newly remodeled restaurant with new menu. The restaurant has been redone in pale gray blue and white tones. Nice outside area that faces the lighthouse. We started with an Italian margarita- excellent and the complimentary bread – focaccia- fresh and great herb mixture. Then we tried the Rockefeller’s trio which was a yummy mixture of shrimp, lobster, oysters, spinach and bacon. Not a lot of oysters or lobster but tasted wonderful – can get without oysters. I had the 16oz rib eye which had a great smoky flavor; came with potatoes and steamed vegetables with soup or salad choice. We both choose the corn chowder which was creamy with a hint of chicken. Husband had the seafood crepes – which was light stuffed with seafood and a creamy sauce that did not overwhelm the seafood (shrimp, crab and scallops).

Spacious outdoor seating. Fantastic service. Large portions. Good food. Prices are a tad high but that’s to be expected for the area (IMO).
