Vistamar Restaurant & Lounge

We went to this restaurant to celebrate my birthday with my family and my Yorkie boy, and honestly, it was one of the best experiences we’ve had! From the moment we arrived, the staff was super welcoming and kind — they even made my little pup feel included. The food was absolutely delicious, every dish was full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The drinks were just as good — fresh, well-balanced, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was warm and relaxing, perfect for enjoying time with family. It’s not easy to find places that combine great service, great food, and such a friendly environment, but this place really nailed it. I totally recommend it to anyone looking for a nice spot to eat and unwind. I’ll definitely be coming back again soon!

I went to Vistamar today with my friends to celebrate my birthday and they make me feel special. My waitress Jocelyn and Luis did a great job. Her services was amazing! Thank you again! Highly recommend, I will be back for sure!!

So much fun celebrating my Moms bday. Suli made sure it was a memorable experience! Can't wait to come back. Beautiful just beautiful. Loved the good food!!!!

We had an amazing time at this restaurant! The atmosphere was warm and relaxing, perfect for a special evening out. The food exceeded our expectations—fresh ingredients, rich flavors, and beautifully plated. Our server was truly outstanding, her name was Jazmin she was so lovely, gracious, and genuinely attentive without being overbearing. They made us feel like valued guests and added a personal touch that made our night unforgettable. Highly recommended—we’ll definitely be back soon! You better ask for Jazmin to be your server!!

I started off with the garlic mussels. Then I had the arugula salad. Main entree was mash with salmon and to end it I had the raspberry lemon drop cheesecake. Everything I had was amazing. Even the bread the mussels came with were a tiny bit crispy to dip in the garlic sauce. Only thing I wish I had come sooner to try out the vanilla creme brûlée but unfortunately the kitchen was close by the time I try to order desert. I sat outside with a nice view of the water, boat and they had music playing ! I would definitely come back to this spot and recommend it

I recently celebrated here for a special occasion. I had a wonderful experience from beginning to end. The food came out fast. It was delicious and everyone was very helpful and kind. Even the employees I ran into in the bathroom were all very welcoming and kind. 10/10 . Special thanks to DETHELIN & OSIRIS !! they made our experience memorable. Excellent service from the two of them. Highly recommend.

It’s a lovely place, and the food is delicious. We had the best time, served by the best staff. Sully was our server (she is such lovely person) and made us feel very welcomed. Highly appreciated and recommended! 😊

Ygsell was an amazing server. She was attentive to all our needs, and made celebrating my birthday special. The venue was beautiful and we really enjoyed our time. Definitely plan to return! Espectacular! Love love love

I visited Vistamar on Labor Day after some friends suggested we visit a new Happy Hour Spot they discovered. Originally I said no because I was on a date and had just finished having a light lunch. Out of the blue she asked "would you like to go to City Island?" My eyes opened wide and I said Absolutely! So I decided to to to the same place my friends suggested and to my surprise, the place is beautiful. We made it just in time before Happy Hour ended. I didn't want to sit at the bar with my friends so the Manager sat us down at the corner table with the most amazing view of the sunset. We ordered the fried calamari, and Tacos. For drinks we had Mojitos and Beer. The bill was about $50.00. Guillermo and Suli treated us like Royalty! Thank you Vistamar! Everything was OUTSTANDING!!

I went to Vistamar for my birthday because its location (City Island), menu, and design make it a great place to eat in the Bronx. The water and layout of the restaurant elevate the visuals to another level. I'm conflicted about how to feel about this place. I was introduced to it last month and quickly shortlisted it for my birthday. The place is so visually appealing. Both indoor and outdoor dining have their stylistic advantages, and you can't go wrong with either vibe aesthetically. I went there with a party of five, and there were some highs and lows. Upon arrival on Thursday at 6:47, there was no wait inside or outside. I was seated at the end of the outdoor dining area, which offered a great backdrop for photos, a view of the water, and prime people-watching. Unfortunately, those darned lanternflies are back, so I had to move the party inside. When I sat down, one of our guests was already at the bar inside, so the staff brought their happy hour oysters and drinks outside. I noticed that our menus didn't include the smaller happy hour menu. Upon requesting it, the outdoor waiter left and did not return with it. When we moved inside the restaurant at 6:53, there was another request to place the HH order without the menu, and I was told they had already stopped it to change the system over their next menu options. That was very disappointing because part of the reason I chose this venue over others was for the happy hour menu. I just wish that restaurants would stop their promotions at the times they claim they end. If it ends at 6:40, just say that instead so they don't make you travel across the borough to be disappointed. Anyway, they then brought out the "Lady's Night" menu, which had some interesting options. Unfortunately, and probably to be expected, they said men couldn't participate in the evening promotion. Yay, happy birthday to me. We ordered a good amount of apps and entrees. I personally had the calamari, lobster mac, and filet mignon entree. The calamari was solid, the lobster mac had an interesting melted cheese topping with a rich, somewhat buttery cheese sauce inside. The filet mignon was a bit of a letdown: a nice large portion of beef, a couple of bland asparagus, and solid mashed potatoes with sauce. For cocktails, I ordered the "Tamo' Ready" and tried a Lychee Martini and Passionfruit Mojito. All three were solid. Although the food didn't seem worth the price, the drinks were really good. When they perform their birthday song, it's a whole production with a giant club sign included. The dessert platter with cotton candy was a nice touch--very different from what you normally get at restaurants, so kudos to them. Honestly, if I were to come back, it would likely be for the happy hour or because someone else wanted to eat here. It's a gorgeous venue with a lot of interesting events, but it's hard to prepare because their website doesn't even work. I'd come back for the happy hour (if they decide to honor it), but the main food didn't seem worth the price. The drinks, HH promotion, view, birthday aspects, and promotions really saved it for me because I was heavily teetering between 3 and 4 stars.

Visited Vistamar for my sister's birthday during their Wednesday cigar and live music night. We were seated right away outside, and although the live music was quite loud, the view was amazing. We got there right around sunset and it couldn't have been prettier. They are doing some updating inside their restaurant, but overall, the ambience indoor is beautiful- I loved the bar and various photo op spots. I would opt to sit inside for the next visit. Jonathan was our server and he seemed new to the gig. Nonetheless, he was attentive when we called him over and adhered to our requests. For drinks we ordered bottle service which came out right away. For dinner we got the seafood tower which was HUGE. The only complaint I had was the whole lobster served with it. It was so messy to break this lobster down and most of it ended up going to waste :( We ordered a few other appetizer samplers and they were not bad but for the price our expectations were higher. Overall, for the steep price of dinner, I expected better tasting options and better communication from the servers. For 6 adults, with bottle service and mainly appetizers, our total bill was $630. I would give Vistamar another shot for drinks only and taking in the scenic water view.

Me and My Honey came here for our one year anniversary. This is the second time we have came here and the experience was even better than the last. The food was delicious and the Service was on point! Shout out to Jonathan and the other staff helping out!! All of our questions were answered and we were constantly checked on We got the chicken Empanadas and the crab cakes for appetizers. The crab cakes were delicious and the sauce that it came with just complemented the dish. I got the Paradise island for a drink. It had a beautiful presentation and was my drink of the night! For dinner, my honey got the T-bone steak with Mashed Potatoes and I got the City Island (Skirt steak, Shrimp and Lobster tail) with potatoes. We were both very happy with our food and the steaks were cooked as asked. The lobster tail stood out to me as well. It wasn't fishy and it was cooked to perfection!! I have a love hate relationship with Lobster, but when I come back I will be sure there is a tail on my plate!! I took dessert to go. I chose the Mango Guava Cheese Cake and it was the perfect treat to end the night. Over all I had a great time celebrating my anniversary and I can't wait to come back!!

I really enjoyed Vista Mar. The happy hour deal is great. There's both food and drinks on the menu. Get there at 5:30 latest thought because they're are very funny about offering happy hour as the time approaches 6. The space is also beautiful it's great for happy hour or a good night out. Thought the set up outside is nice, bugs were all over the plates and silverware. One giant one even landed on me, so I can't eat outside. I also found that the waiter we had was pretty inattentive despite the restaurant not being busy. However the quality of the food and the price point of happy hour would make it a place I would visit again

Met up here with my family for Saturday brunch. My daughter ordered French toast with cotton candy which was presented nicely, as well as her fudge brownie with ice cream dessert. My sister didn't think the food tasted as good as it looked. I only tried their mimosa, it was fresh and strong, they offer bottomless for 2 hours. There are many lovely areas for photo ops. At night this spot becomes club like. I don't think I'd plan to come here to eat, but I'm willing to meet up with family and have some more drinks again.

Food was amazing. Skirt steak tri-fongo was on point. Everything was cooked to PERFECTION. Vistamar decor is Beautoful. All the Employees were Polite and Friendly. EDGAR was friendly and a big help.

I always go to city island but tend to always go to the same restaurant. I decided to give this place a try and it did not disappoint. They have outdoor dining but it was a little cool so I opted to eat inside. For appetizer, I got buffalo wings. Then as a main course, I got crispy fried shrimp. The waitress was friendly and attentive. I have no complaints about this place. I plan on coming back when the weather is nicer to sit outside.

Sat outside on a Thursday night, such vibe picture perfect! Food was amazing, free valet park. Yudeika bought us some drinks to try amazing. The service is above and beyond!!! Thursday is Lady's Night and there is a menu all night after 7pm. It won't disappoint!!!

Parking is $5 cash only. We got here on a Saturday afternoon, it was a perfect time, because there was nobody really there(1pm). We got to sit outside since the weather was perfect. Although the indoor seating was very nice as well. The staff was all kind and helpful. There was a wedding going on in their event room, so the parking got pretty crowded fast. I believe they have Friday night, Saturday night and Sunday brunch djs, so I can imagine this place becomes a big party. We ordered a the appetizer for two and Mac and cheese, later we got the mofongo with shrimp. I can't complain about anything at all. The server recommended the Shrimp mofongo and it was delicious. We liked looking out to the water and enjoyed the decorations outdoors. We had such a nice experience here I will absolutely be back soon!

I really enjoyed my visit to Vistamar for my birthday! We sat outside where there was an amazing DJ. The decor and views were perfect .We caught a little happy hour and then had dinner. We also had hookah. During the evening there were also dancers who contributed to the vibes . Customer service was lovely. So all in all I recommend this restaurant and I will be back.

Came here for brunch w/ my family.Inside is so beautiful.The decor is great for photo ops. The building is mostly made up of glass so you see the beautiful sea. I ordered the bottomless mimosas (for only $25) & chicken & waffles.Waffles were really hard & chicken was mediocre.It was fried little chicken cutlet pieces in a batter.Im used to having chicken & waffles w/ fried chicken legs,thighs,breast,or wings.my cousin had a cheeseburger w/ fries. I should have ordered that instead. He said it was so delicious. It looked so good I took a pic of it.Mimosas were the best part.I can tell they didn't use cheap champagne b/c my stomach would have hurted. Waiter was not attentive. I kept having to get up to get a mimosa refill. The busboy was way more attentive than the waiter.

Sat at the bar for drinks and Oysters. Drinks were good oysters so fresh. Will definitely go back.

The website and reviews I saw for this restaurant are deceiving. I booked a table indoors for 10 on Sunday early afternoon. we had to decline to be seated inside because the music was so loud like discotheque. So we waited for a table outside and thank God it was not hot And they prepared the table quickly. But after that the service was horrible too much waiting for someone to attend us and the food was not that great for the long waiting I ordered a friend red snapper and fried shrimps and they were brown as they were refried a couple of times. we also ordered camarones Al ajillo the Plate had like 6 or 8 kind of small shrimps. other plates did not look appealing either. So first time there and last time too.

Went on Saturday on 5/11 before Mother's Day which irregardless was a busy wknd. Had made a reservation just to be on the safe side. We were seated right away. Waitress came and greeted us and left disappeared for a while. Once our drinks came we ordered apps and mains. Appetizers came out fast granted they were only half a dozen oysters. Then we waited about 45mins-1hr for our main courses. Everyone at my table (my mom and aunt) were very upset and hungry to say the least. The waitress never even came or check up on us or give us an update about the food; it wasn't until we all kept looking around for anyone to acknowledge us that a food runner and a busboy got the manager who was apologetic and told us our food was coming. The food finally gets to our table and the whole order was wrong! I specifically told them that this was not my dish which I had ordered a seafood trifongo and I was handed a shrimp one only. The food runner took only my mom's and aunt food back and as I insisted that mine too was wrong the waitress assured me it was what I ordered. I took 2 bites bc I was hungry Nz then the manager again comes and takes the dish confirming it was not mine! So we wait a little more for our actual food to finally get there. And after all that waiting and back and forth the food was mediocre to say the least. This place has seriously lost its value since I was Don Coqui. After everything said and done the service was horrible to the fact that even the food runners commented that there is "something wrong with the waitress." Not once were we even offered to comp a drink or one meal for all the inconvenience they caused us; mind you I only had one cocktail...it would have been the least they could have offered, but alas they did not. Would not recommend this place as there are far more superior seafood places in City Island. Ambience is loud and rowdy...they also have hookah which we did not know and my aunt suffers from respiratory issues but thankfully the hookah was being served in the bar side of this place.

Celebrated my mother's 70th birthday at this restaurant. The valet worker crashed my daughter's car and the restaurant refused to take responsibility for the damages. They stated that they did not have cameras in the parking lot and said "How do we know that the damages wasn't already there. They refused to provide their insurance information. PARK AT YOUR OWN RISK!

A very nice design inside and outside. Drinks are decent. Food is ok, nothing to brag about. Maybe hire some new cooks. Too pricey. Too much hookah. Nice view of the water.

I only came for drinks, so I can't really speak on too much. It was pretty much empty with only two tables occupied. However, I sat at the bar. The bartender was really amazing, offering her suggestions and she was spot on. Both drinks were really good, and of course the presentation of the Jack Sparrow was super dope. Now, there was a live DJ and this is one of those times where I was not feeling this vibe at all. Aside from only playing Spanish music, the music was SO LOUD. Like I could not even here the person I was with. It was super annoying and it seemed like the DJ was not reading the room. He was in his own little world with his friends at the DJ Booth smoking Hookah. I would really like to come back to try the food, and hopefully I can report a better experience. However for now, I can say that the drinks definitely live up to all the hype.

We came on a Wednesday night for dinner. The last time we came the manager /new owners stopped by and said they were going to be making changes and we'd likely see them by the time we came back. I was not prepared for how many changes were in store. The menu was practically completely revamped. The ambience is the same as far as the vibe as set up but different aesthetically if that makes sense. They've prettied up the outside a bit more as well. And there are more decorations all around. I know there is another section for private parties and a catering hall I believe but I haven't visited that part. The main dining area is very nice. Last night we had the pleasure of being waited on by Suli and she was sweet and attentive but not overbearing. We would definitely ask for her again if she's available on our next visit. This time we ordered: Sparkling water for the table Appetizers - Salmon Croquettes ($18) Buratta with tomatoes on the side ($22) Entrees- Branzino ($39) Crispy Fried Shrimp ($27) Add on of four (4) fried scallops ($12) Drinks- Mango Margarita ($16) Pink Paris ($17) Everything was absolutely delicious! They may have changed the menu but they didn't downgrade in any way! The food is still great! The service is still awesome! I believe it was the evening manager who stopped by to check and make sure we were happy and and everything was good, which speaks to the customer service. And also they make it very clear that the tip is included on the bill. It's a moderate 18% and you can choose to add any additional if you choose. I'm also glad they don't charge a credit card fee. I hope that continues! I'll continue to return with friends and family!

I came here for my birthday with a table for 12, they have the WORST service I've ever experienced. Not only did they take a whole hour to seat me even though my table had all arrived at the same time they took about 45 minutes to take our order and then the food didn't come out till 12:30AM. Our reservation was for 10PM! The food was good but by that time everyone was annoyed and didn't even want the food no more. WORST service ever the waitresses are all air heads that act like you're asking for a lot when you ask for an update. This place is the worst place to come to if you're with a big group. Very sad because the place is gorgeous, they have great food, they have great entertainment but the service makes everything look bad

Brunch but make it Boozy! I had the pleasure of eating here on a Sunday afternoon for brunch. I was apart of a large party celebrating a baptism. There were 25-30 people in our party. Firstly they allowed us to be seated as we entered. Unlike other restaurants that won't seat you unless your entire party is present (imagine having to wait for 25ppl before you can sit?!) As soon as I walked in I was greeted by the hostess. I told her the party I was with and she escorted me over to our area. Vistamar is the definition of esthetically pleasing!! Amazing views of the water, full length glass windows, pops of color throughout with pretty floral arrangements and tons of natural lighting. Shortly after supplying us all with water our waiter made his way over and began taking orders. He was so on point and organized. He started with our appetizer and drink orders. Once our apps hit he came back and took our entree orders. Since we were a large party he also created tabs by table!!!! No discrepancies when the bills came because it was only you and the ppl you're sitting with. GENIUS!!!! I started with a caesar salad as my appetizer. The dressing had to have been made in house... the best caesar dressing I've ever had. The salad was so good I totally forgot to take a picture of it and by the time I did it was almost gone. As my entree I had the Todo Terreno. Mangu was full of flavor, eggs were seasoned & scrambled hard with cheese. For an additional $25 you can enjoy 90 minutes of unlimited mimosa and sangria. The sangria was soooo good that I never had a chance to taste the mimosa. Whenever it was time for a refill I stayed with the sangria. At the end of the night we all said to each other.... "What was in that sangria" LOL. Brunch was such a vibe.... Great music, DJ and an MC. The MC was so entertaining. Walking around with the mic & interacting with the entire restaurant. We had such a great time! Pair that with the great service and tasty food.... I'll definitely be back.

I found this restaurant from TikTok and decided to try it for my bf birthday . I was satisfied with the quality of food, service, and atmosphere of the restaurant. We went on a Friday night so they had a live DJ that kept the crowd entertained. I ordered the fried red snapper with rice and beans & my bf ordered the steak with lobster tail and rice&beans. We both enjoyed our meal however this restaurant is pricey. 2 meals (entree only), 2sides (have to pay per side), 1glass red sangria, sparkling water, slice of cake totaled $200. But you have to expect that when eating in expensive New York ! ( geesh) Pro : 1.Great date night with good scenery on the water 2.Parking lot with Valet parking $5 3. Picture worthy scenery

Had a surprise party here for my dad's birthday. It was a little close to 30 people so the service was slow. I feel like companies need more servers with larger parties. Food was okay. It was a pre fixeIt took them so long to bring water, soda etc to the table. Everyone one complaining about being thirsty. The appetizers were good and food was okay. J May go back on a regular day with less people but I'm not pressed to go back anytime soon. Hopefully I have a better experience.

Two hours Long wait. Food was not good. Expensive and not worth the money. The manager was not accommodating. We had reservations for pre fix courses for a family celebration and when we arrived we were told we would have to wait two hours for the food to come out so we ordered off the regular lunch menu. The food still ended up taking two hours. We had to pay more money for less food. We are never coming back here. Our whole family was disappointed with their food. Three family members got food poisoning the next day and they all ordered the salmon.

Went there for our anniversary. We were seated promptly. It was a Monday night, and the place was about 1/3 full. We were given bread and water and then waited 45 min. A server never came to our table. We got up and left. The music was too loud. Too many people smoking hooka. Never got to taste the food.

Came here for our Anniversary because my Wife saw it on Instagram, & we wanted to try somewhere new. So glad that we did!! We're already planning to come back with friends. They have a shared lot with another business & Valet Parking which cost $5. They have beautiful waterside dining, stunning views, but we ate inside because we didn't wanna sit in the 95° heat for the view, LOL. The interior is nicely designed with a blue theme (my favorite color). The staff was speedy & attentive. When we first arrived it was EMPTY, as in us & one other couple. By the time we left it was starting to get crowded, but the staff's service did not change. Now for the food: 1st they give you complimentary buttered bread sticks....So good. Maybe needed salt, but still very good. (I think they used unsalted butter) We had the Asian Style Pork Ribs appetizer & my God....DELICIOUS!!! Literally fall off of the bone tender. The "Asian style" sesame sauce they're glazed in is amazing. For our main courses we had the 'Surf & Turf,' & 'Broiled Lobster w/Scallops' with a side of 'Mofongo.' The food was incredible, except for the Mofongo. It was dry & flavorless. Drinks, we had a Long Island Iced Tea, needless to say it was STRONG! Also the Miami Vice & Jack Sparrow, the latter of which interestingly has no rum in it. We didn't do dessert, but I ended our experience with an espresso. Good on flavor & presentation, bad on temperature. It was just above room temperature, warm at best. Overall, Great food, wonderful experience, we WILL be back.

We had our parents 58th anniversary celebration at Vistamar, the staff was unbelievably accommodating for all our last minute changes. Mike was especially helpful! (Always ask for Mike when having an event!) He went above and beyond to make sure the facilities were excepcional. He made sure to check in on us throughout the party and that we had everything we needed. Hats off to the chef, the food was exceptional, all of our guests raved about it! Thank you to Ms. Robles for working with our crazy schedule and we appreciated her flexibility. I highly recommend this venue for any celebration or important event, you will not be disappointed.

Food took a bit long because we had a large party! But the entertainment' while dining was 100% . Caught a good vibe, drinks were good and they had Hookah. I'm going back for brunch once the weather gets nice outside

Great food but it was cold, service a little slow, great outdoor dining during the summer months, good music and good drinks.

Love this place.. the shows are great music is good.. hookah is also good. Service was also good. Only bad thing I have to say is parking. But it's New York.

Brunch was great, they keep the drinks flowing. Steak and eggs were delicious, my husband had the chicken and waffles. The cotton candy was a nice touch but there was not much chicken with the meal. The servers were kind and very accommodating. FYI there are no substitutions with the menu and once you choose your drink option, there's no switching. The view was gorgeous, you could see the water and the nyc skyline. The bathroom is cute mermaid themed and there are plenty of cute places to take pictures with friends. One major issue though, it was TOO loud. So loud we had to put in earplugs. If you want a club vibe, this is for you, but if you are catching up with friends or have a headache, beware of the volume.

Took my parents and girlfriend to Vistamar yesterday Sunday. They sat us down right away and being 4 at a table we wanted to start the day with a pitcher of Sangria. The waitress told us that she wouldn't be able to serve us a pitcher because we're not a group and that if I want we can order 4 glasses of Sangria. I didn't understand because it was 4 of us in total! I didnt want to ruin our day so I said okay just bring us water then. She came back later and asked, are you sure you dont want to order anything to drink? I kindly said no just water and then I couldn't help it and I had to ask what's a group of people if a table of 4 is not a group? She then said she will ask her manager and came back with the okay! Two pitchers later we finally got our food but it didnt matter because we enjoyed the shows they put on for everyone. We enjoyed the atmosphere and will be back BUT this time I will ask how much a sangria pitcher costs because the total amount on the receipt for 3 sangria pitchers didnt make sense and each pitcher came out to about 62 and change as if tax was charged to them separate before adding to the bill. I wasn't happy about it but didnt want to make a big deal. Hopefully when I come back this wont be a issue again!

i went here for my best friends birthday! The venue is very nice defiantly a party vibe which is what we wanted for a 30th birthday party. Unfortunately the service was extremely slow. Fortunately we were drinking and didn't mind haha but it was very slow. The food was good but some people said their food was cold. The dj and entertainment was really fun! I would definitely go here for a party again!

Went here for a girls night with my close friend at first I was very skeptical about the place, we had reservations but the wait can go up to 2-3hrs and people wait!!! The vibes and inside of this place was A1 they even have an outdoor patio that was also decked out. The hostess was so sweet pretty and helpful, since it was just two of us it was somewhat hard to place us they had 5 birthdays that day! But one of the gentleman was able to get us seated thankfully. They had ah live saxophone player who was nothing short of amazing wish yelp would let me post the video. He played so well and hit ever beat of the song being played, this place turns into a party after 9 so be prepared to turn up lol. Now onto the food I loved everything but the appetizer was our favorite honestly that garlic sauce was chefs kiss. Not pictured is the drinks which were also yummy all in all we will be back.

Beautiful establishment, AMAZING drinks! Great view and the service is spectacular! The food isn't bad either but not the best. The place is definitely pricey, don't get me wrong it's a very very nice place but going with a group, ordering a few drinks could definitely run you a bill higher than expected.

The decor here was beautiful! My friend brought me here to celebrate my birthday. I ate chicharrón de pollo with rice and beans. The rice was bland and a bit hard, but mixed with the beans, it tasted much better. The chicharron de pollo was delicious especially with lime juice. At first I was saying the drink was all ice but I started to feel it a little after. I wouldn't come here again but it was a nice experience!

Very yummy food and exquisite service from Miguelo-we had the grilled octopus and the cerviche. Accompanied by liche martini-for a main course the rib eye steak was prepared to perfection and you can't go wrong with the mango guava cheesecake and cappuccinos for dessert

I went on a hot summer day , the service was terrible very terrible the food was terrible the drinks was missing and we had to call the owner because nothing was right and definitely not for the high price. But things changed the owner is 1 amazing person her came and when I say saved the day I been back about 5 times it's no need to go drive all the way in city island more this is the perfect spot. The inside and out is gorgeous the hookah was good yes they have cigars night it's definitely a good 360.

The Ambience is great. The entertainment was Also really cool. The food was okay, my husband loved the mussels.

I ordered tacos and found a hair in the sour cream. I informed the manager or owner, but their response was disappointing. They didn't apologize and simply asked if I wanted a replacement. I accepted, but emphasized that they need to be more careful because this is not acceptable. The least they could do was apologize; I wasn't looking for anything free. The manager seemed very careless about the whole situation, almost as if finding hair in the food was normal.

Friendly waiter, smells like the sewer. Terrible food and terrible management. I ate here before but they must have new management. I see why we were the only people there at 6pm. They are probably the emptiest restaurant in City Island.

And on Sundays we Brunch... cute day time date. Indoor and Outdoor seating is available. Bae wanted to sit by the water so we sat outside. I liked the inside better, but no biggie. They Have hookah. ( I'm not into it, but I know that's a popular thing these days .) Server was cool . She was polite and attentive. Brunch Pre fix is pretty cool. You get a appetizer, entree and dessert. Plus unlimited mimosas or sangria for 90 mins. I like the coconut shrimp for my appetizer. The steak and eggs were underwhelming. And dessert wasn't that bad but the cotton candy as garnish was throwing me off . I wasn't feeling the brunch but it wasn't the worse . Would I go back ?? Yes . I wanna sit inside and I think I might have better luck with the dinner menu. Should you ?? Yes definitely

Came here for Brunch although the service was slow the food and value for the price was fair. The ambiance was nice we sat outdoors. Brunch was delicious loved the shrimp cocktail and the chicken and waffles everything was DELICIOUS! Our waitress we weren't to fond of not sure if she was new but she could work on the touching the table more and being attentive we ended up being helped more and getting friendlier service from another server that was serving guest next to us. We would definitely return it's a great place to visit especially in the summer.

Here for a birthday celebration; and the group placed their food order approximately at 8:30pm and it is now 10:40pm and we are still waiting on our food. Didn't order an appetizer because I assumed my meal would arrived at a good amount of time. I was fooled. This restaurant is not for large parties and a large group of people. I would say there's probably over 100 people in the restaurant and within the group of 25 that I'm a part of, not one of us are eating. The service is horrible. I don't understand why they have one (1) waitress for a large party. She was confused on who gets what food while other people are eating what they order, while the rest is still waiting. The food did come at 10:55. Over 2 1/22 hours of waiting. However, they make sure you get enough alcohol in your system. I would recommend anyone that wants to come here on a weekend not to come, unless you don't mind waiting for a long period of time for your food. Nevertheless, the service is probably better during the week. The entertainment and music is good. Keeps you dancing in your seat. I would rate this establishment a 1/5.

Visited City Island for the first time this past Saturday night. Bottom line? If your looking for a place that has beautiful scenery, strong drinks, live music & a great DJ then THIS is your place! We were taken inside for a big birthday celebration at 8:30 and didn't get served our meal until 10:30. I realize it was a busy Saturday night but I find that unacceptable. On top of that, no one loved their dinner! It was decent but definitely not anything to write home about. Penne Alla Vodka was NOT good. Fish was ehhhhhh and lobster ravioli was disappointing. The drinks are strong and the live saxophonist was truly epic! The DJ played a nice mix of Latin music and R&B and their were some people dancing but they definitely need a dance floor. Go for the music not the food.

On the extremely rare occasions that I give a restaurant a 5 star review. I am so glad that it is an Hispanic restaurant. The service as on point. The food was so fresh and the drinks were perfect.. loved g this place My server Jocelyn is bomb!!!

I really want to give no stars. Another one and done for me!!! My family and I decided to try to switch it up this New Year's Eve, get dressed up and enjoy a nice dinner out. So, we found this place. Foolish of me to not look into it fully being that we planned 2 weeks ago. This was a prefix menu, one price $100 for adults and $50 for children and the added entertainment they advertised was a bonus, especially since we had 3 children in our group. Sad to say It was an all around disappointment; ARRIVAL: We were seated in a seperate room other than main eating area. The lighting was extremely bright. We asked more than once to dim the lights if possible, nothing. We also double checked to make sure the entertainment they offered would be available for our viewing needs, although they said yes to us, we got to see nothing!!! Thankfully the kids come prepared with tablets & drawing kits to keep them busy. -SERVICE: The waiter was barely available for us after he took our food order. Especially getting a drink. The entire 4hrs there some of us just had one Lychee Martini. Soda and beer orders were forgotten and we had to remind him more than once. We attempted to go to the bar but they were only servicing the waiters needs no individual orders. -FOOD: We ordered about 9ish and food started to come out by about 11:15ish. I had the steak and lobster which both were cold. The lobster was horrible and rubbery. The steak was just ok. Not one person at my table was happy with the food. Other options were fish and paella. Kids had pizza also cold. -HOOKAH should have been available in one area of the restaurant. Not everyone wants to inhale that and it def isnt kid friendly. Understood that NYE can be an insane evening to handle. However, if you are an establishment and this is the type of business you run then PREPARE AND DO BETTER!!! The quality of the food and service we received was DEFINITELY not worth the $2000 plus we paid for. We were blessed to be with eachother and ring in the New Year as a family and that's the only beautiful part of our evening. Do not recommend this place at all. I would have prefered Johnny's or Tony's at the end!!

Perfect place for good food, drinks and entertainment. I went on a Saturday it felt like I was in a resort show.

This place gets packed and if the dj is there it gets lit! I'm talking hookah, dancing, partying definitely can give you brunch day party vibes if thats what your looking for! Everyone here is having a good time and enjoying theirselves and that is what makes this place special! On top of that the drinks are flowing. Good place for a celebration, lots of birthdays were happening on a Sunday afternoon. There also was a photographer on site to capture some photos. I ordered the whole red snapper, fried. It came with seafood on the inside that I honestly could have done without, but it came with yucca fries, veggies and what I think was fried smashed yucca that was really good. Everyone in my party had a great time which was exactly what we needed for a 60th birthday.
