Stunning views - attentive wait staff - food to die for! But be prepared to pay for it - this is not a cheap hamburger stand on the beach. Try the fois gras, the truffle potato chips and the cheese tray, the seasonal dishes are wonderful (Lobster Mac & Cheese!) AND the old favories are there. We get 3 entree's and some sides for 4 people and are stuffed so I dont get the underfed reviews. Deserts are not to be missed. Spicey chocolate ice cream (Jalapeno!) The lemon/basil sorbet too. The winelist can be overpriced for the popular but look for some undervalued gems there too. Make a reservation if you want cabana service, there isnt a bad view in the house.
Pros: Food is off the charts!
Cons: Late night crowd can be a bit hollywood - but the views are worth it!
