    Overall, the open setting is beautiful with a great view of sunset , the beach and the PV Pier. We sat inside to avoid the sand and since we were a bit early for sunset, wanted to sit in the shade. Unfortunately, the canned music was a bit loud and the speaker was nearby, so we asked to turn it down a bit, they refused. I had a fig salad and the seafood chowder and my friend had seared scallops. The salad and scallops were wonderful, my chowder was somewhat bland. Service was fair, they seem to be stretched thin, although the waiter was very friendly and accommodating, he was difficult to find. We didn’t have dessert.

    Beautiful location. For the high price I expected more attentive service and a different quality of meal. I would recommend it for the experience because it is very beautiful.

    We sat as close to the Bay as possible. The setting was gorgeous. Our meals were excellent. My main course of grilled scallops was delicious and I had more scallops than in a typical restaurant. Service was attentive. It was an overall great experience.

    Literally so delicious. The view was spectacular, the wait staff was so kind and attentive, and multiple people said it was the best food they'd ever had. If you are in PV I would recommend going. So worth it.

    Great meals for the four of us. One couple shared a NY steak and Lobster and it was the best lobster ever. The NY steak was cooked perfectly and very good. Our fourth had Mahi Mahi and raved about it. The beach seating is wonderful and the service was great. The only downside was the price. It was expensive for PVR, comparable to the U.S.
