Spanish Pointe

Reviews & Tips

  I'm writing this fresh from this restaurant.  We found Spanish Pointe yesterday and brought our wives back for sunset and dinner.  Spectacular setting on the water....real Tiki Bar atmosphere.  That is where the problems started.  One waiter(did a great job)had to cover the entire restaurant plus tend bar.  No one was at the front so we seated ourselves.  Owner's daughter showed up later but was no help getting the food and drinks out.  We finally were able to place our drink and food order, including calamari.  Time passed with no food, finally stopped the waiter asking about the appetizer.  He immediately came back with the Calamari but it was completely cold....sent it back.  10 minutes later food was delivered with a fresh order of calamari.  Since we had our entrees' we sent the calamari back.  By the way, all of our food was very good.  Someone in the kitchen knows what they're doing.  About this time, we find that the owner was setting two tables away.  One of our group goes to the owner, (setting alone) and tells him that this is a great setting.  With proper staffing, this would be a million dollar location.  All this was done in a manner of commiserating with him over the fact that wait staff hadn't shown.  His comment was "I already make a million dollars because I'm a cardiologist and don't worry about this restaurant".  This was his attitude on the whole debacle(computer stopped working and couldn't produce our bill).  We tipped our waiter above the 20% mark for his extra hard work.  Told the owner when we were leaving that it was doubtful that we would be back and all we got was a shrug.  Will not be back...too many good restaurants that appreciate your business.

  Just the view would be 5 stars! It's all outdoor seating. The food wasn't great but I think it's because my personal preferences (I'm sure someone else would have loved it). The others in my group loved there food. It's worth coming here hands down. I gave it 4 stars because everything this place has going for it is great. If you're looking for a great view and relaxing meal this is your place. Keep in mind it's nothing fancy though.
