“ First and foremost, Jesse our server was attentive and so pleasant. He made our night. While my wife and I line danced, he kept our drinks full and food coming. And Rachael Snyder of Fancy Feet line dancing kept the music and dances going all night. We will be back. Thank you for a fun, fun Tuesday night. ”
“ We got married here on Friday 3/14/25 Well I do agree that the service was slow the place was packed eould have preferred a variety of music playing as opposed to just country but that's neither here or there. I wasn't a fan of the high chairs but the view is the reason I chose this place. The food was fair, but I didn't feel like the server wasn't very attentive considering I was spending a lot of money here I felt the service could have been more available i had to hunt my server down a few times. The manager Casey was very good she kept constant communication and was very helpful. While the server did help with some things I ended up cutting my own cake and boxing it because I didn't feel like waiting around and some of my guests wanted to leave we drove over an hour and a half to be here. We all agreed it was the perfect venue and they did work with my budget we enjoyed ourselves and anticipate coming back in the spring to watch the sunset and enjoy the beach. ”
“ Loved it here! Spent a long weekend in Seaside Park with two girlfriends and we ended up here every night. One of the biggest reasons we kept coming back was because of the bartenders. We had Greg, Thomas, Jody and Pamela. They were fantastic and so fun to chat with while we were enjoying the drinks and music. I couldn’t believe how attentive they were to every customer - definitely kept the drinks flowing. The outdoor space is awesome & appreciated the way they decorated the inside. Super cute. Highly recommend coming here! ”

“ I recently had the pleasure of dining at the Ocean View Restaurant , and while the food was delicious and the ambiance inviting, what truly elevated the entire experience was our server, Jesse. From the moment we were seated, Jesse was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without ever being intrusive. Jesse had an exceptional knowledge of the menu, offering thoughtful recommendations that matched our tastes perfectly—including recommendations for drinks that turned out to be spot-on. What impressed me most was Jesse’s ability to anticipate our needs before we even had to ask. Our glasses were never empty, empty plates disappeared like magic, and any special requests we made were handled with ease and a smile. They managed multiple tables with grace, yet made us feel like we were their top priority all evening. Little touches—like remembering our names, accommodating a last-minute dietary request without hesitation, and checking in just the right amount—made the experience feel personal and genuinely cared for. Service like this is rare and deserves recognition. Jesse turned a great meal into a memorable one, and we’ll absolutely be returning—not just for the food, but for the outstanding hospitality. ”
“ We had a wonderful early dinner outside. Atmosphere was great with live music and beautiful views of the beach and ocean. Service was very good and so was the food!! My favorite was the crab cake over tater tots and the burrata, peach arugula salad. ”
