After a week in town we finally got around to trying this place and wish we had found it sooner. Made to order pizzas and a full list of traditional Italian dishes, all of them beautifully presented and tastily prepared.Outdoor dining and a very gracious wait staff made our visit all the more enjoyable. My wife is a vegan and they were very accommodating

Our family of six had a fun time finding this place, and were glad we did. It's a great place to relax by the beach, have some tropical drinks and good food. We stayed around to watch the sun set on a huge rock between two islands off shore. The team of servers was very attentive. Our only complaint would be the constant battle to keep pesky flies off of our drinks and food.Hello Birdguy: Thank you for your review and for your business! I am very happy to hear that you enjoyed your time with us. I have watched many sunsets between the mountain and island in front of Father Rooster. It is quite a display. Glad you enjoyed the food and drinks. I wish that we had a better solution for the flies. They come on occasion and cover the entire region--generally when the winds are pushing out from the farmland over the ocean. It is pretty tough to keep them at bay. In any case, thanks again for your business and please come back again soon!

A wonderful family-owned restaurant, featuring local seafood, generous servings and delicious mixed drinks! Our group of seven adults tried a variety of entrees for lunch and everyone was happy with their choices, which ranged from seafood cocktails/ceviches, to grilled and fried entrees and combo plates to hamburgers.

Sitting and overlooking the bay and its wonderful sunsets and glory is very nice. The staff is pleasant as well but we've been having breakfasts here and there is just no imagination. Same things every morning at a rather tired buffet.

Reviewed By kstraveler81
This is one of those places whose positive TA reviews are based upon the calories per dollar. The breakfast buffet is $7 and the volume of food is large. The coffee and rice with beans were okay, but the rest of the food was not very good. Even the fruit was not very good. However, the restaurant was busy as it seems to be a hit with locals. We didnât return.
