   Very nice place for dinner with a view! We sat outside and very relaxing. Food was very good - not large portions but good quality. Key lime pie was excellent

   Wasn’t bad but waited almost an hour for our food. Didn’t ask if we wanted refills while we waited. Didn’t bring more bread especially waiting that long. Maybe they should have given us appetizer since there was such a long wait. Definitely not the same experience from before. Not sure if it’s diff management but was def disappointed. Food was just satisfactory.

   I've been wanting to try the Boathouse for so long and finally made it. Very crowded. Even with a reservation we had to wait but our hostess Bella was wonderful. She kept in touch with us and gave us a perfect table with a beautiful view. Our server Lacee, although very busy, was attentive. Perfect ambience for this type of restaurant. The only thing I didn't care for were the blow up flowers hanging all around the restaurant. Maybe it was for spring or Easter but I felt it detracted from the overall theme. Very noisy. I'm sure it would be more quiet outside. Food was delicious. One of our gests had the Crab Key Chicken which she loved. 2 of us had the Lobster & Gulf Shrimp Saute which was excellent. Lobster tail with shrimp and large scallops, arugula and diced tomatoes in a garlic butter sauce. I highly recommend it.

   I had boathouse combo. The portions were large. I wouldn't mind a smaller portion and include a salad

   We mentioned to the waitstaff that the calamari and alligator appetizer was too salty. She did nothing to remedy the situation. We tried to get her attention to get our check because we had an appt. She ignored us twice and she was right at the table next to us. We dine at the boathouse often and this is the worst experience we have had and the reason was the service.

    Horrible experience. Our reservation was not honored and we were sat almost 30 min after it. Our server was not good. We ordered a Taco Salad with no meat (vegan guest) and two people in the group said to the waiter - “no protein on the salad right” and he responded yes. Well the salad came with chicken. Worse yet, only 3 of 5 meals were delivered together. I had to go inside after 10 minutes to ask for our waiter. He came over and took the salad back and said he would check on the rest of the food. Another 10 minutes passed while two folks had food waiting for the rest of our meals. When the check came the waiter charged us for both a salad and a salad with protein on it. When we asked him to take the extra meal off the bill he said “are you sure? It might cost more if I take it off”. I said yuu charged us for 6 meals with only 5 people and the other 5 are correct how can this cost us more? He seemed puzzled and left. Came back with the correct bill (less than the original). We won’t be back soon. Terrible experience.
