Went to Spazio for lunch on 3/2/13 while visiting friends in Ft. Lauderdale. While Spazio could provide a really nice view, as it is right on the beach front, it's nothing special other than that.
PROS
*Atmosphere - It was pretty cold and windy when we went, but nevertheless, it's right on the beachfront. On a warm day, I'm sure it's much nicer, but even though it was cold they had fire, heat-lamps out there to warm up their customers. We ate outside, so I didn't get to see the actual inside of the place, but outside was very nice on the beachfront.
CONS
*Food - Just got the Spazio Burger, which wasn't a bad burger, their was just nothing special about it at all.
*Service - While our waitress was nice, she was extremely slow with just about everything. Coming over to ask for drinks, ordering our food, bringing our food out, bringing out our check, refilling water, etc. We weren't in a rush, but still she really took her time, when the place wasn't that crowded at all.
*Price - Besides the fact that my burger and fries was $15, I didn't like the fact that gratuity is automatically included in the check. Especially since our waitress wasn't exactly prompt about anything, I didn't even think she deserved close to the percentage she automatically got. Had to spend more than I would have liked to for lunch there.
Our waiter was excellent! Â I wish I caught his name. Â We were there this last Wednesday night with co-workers. Â It wasn't very busy inside where we sat but there were more tables filled outside. Â I liked the garage doors open over looking the beach. Â This is a good place with the highlights being the atmosphere and our waiter. Â The food was good and I think you'll be happy. Â Just don't expect the most outstanding meal you've ever had.
Review Source:With a great view of the ocean and beach side of Ft. Lauderdale, Spazio was the perfect location for my girlfriends and I to sit down and relax for lunch before laying out to get some sun. We sat outside of course, but there was also a very well decorated interior with a spacious bar that had partial outdoor access as well.
Amongst the four of us, we all ordered a variety of pizzas and flatbreads from the menu - the Hawaiian, Napoletana, and Vegetarian pizzas, and the Vegetarian flatbread. They were all decent but my personal favorite was the Hawaiian. The other menu options weren't very original or exciting either, they were your usual pastas and sandwiches you could probably get anywhere else. I think what really drew us to this place was the location and view.
My main complaint is that service was very slow and inconsistent. I think one of the factors attributing to this was that an 18% gratuity was automatically included in the check, so no matter how inattentive servers were, they still got a hefty tip. Our server hardly ever checked back on us for water refills, our food took a while to come out, and once our waitress finally realized we were pretty much done eating, the check took forever to come out as well! If I'm ever back in Ft. Lauderdale, I would probably skip this restaurant and seek others for a more exciting menu and friendlier service.
Spazio is right on the beach and perfect for sitting outside - great view!
I got the vegetarian pizza, with lots of tomatoes, zucchini, eggplant, mushrooms, spinach, garlic and mozzarella.
The prices are reasonable, especially given the size of the pizzas and I enjoyed mine, but my biggest qualm with the restaurant was the slow service and our server's inattentiveness.
Located right on the beachfront, Spazio has the perfect view to watch the ocean. My girlfriends and I decided to try several of the flatbreads and pizzas and they were all delicious and a hefty size for $11-15/pop. Definitely, bigger than a personal pan size! My favorite was the Hawaiian pizza.
If it weren't for the terribly slow service, Spazio would have a 5-star rating. An 18% tip is included for all tables no matter the party size (I'm not sure why, but they do state this on the menu), so the servers don't really have to work for it. Therefore, we only saw our waitress when she delivered our food. I had to flag down another waitress to get ours to bring out our check. Even worse, when our waitress delivered the checks, she dropped my friend's credit card! Luckily my friend with quick reflexes was able to catch it in the wind. Although the place was crowded, it's a shame that they can't have good food AND service!
My wife and I frequent spazios as they are dog friendly and we always take our french bulldog with us and sit at an outside table and enjoy the beach view and the passersby. Â The food is generally good to ok. Â I like the margherita pizza with pepperoni added. Â But the service is generally slow as it is with most beach restaurants both on ft lauderdale beach and Miami beach. Â We are never in a hurry anyway as we like to sit with our dog and enjoy. Â But despite the fact I am never in a hurry when I'm here, the service is sometimes so slow I get annoyed. Â So because of that, three stars.
Review Source:The brick oven pizza listed is what brought us in. We both had a salad, my husbands was a very strong Caesar with old lettuce-the best part the shaved parmesan cheese. Â Mine was drowned in balsamic dressing to cover up old wilted spring greens. Â If it says fire roasted corn- don't try to cover with a quarter cup of canned corn!? Â A brick oven pizza should arrive pipping hot and fresh. It took a while even when our indifferent waiter told us only one more minute and it was neither. Â He disappeared and we flagged down another waiter for our check. Â Counted 13 front of the house people and 15 tables filled, They should do better. skip it.
Review Source:Came here for a Birthday breakfast on the Beach and Spazio is one of a few who delivers consistently good food and service.
Breakfast Mon-Sat 8AM-11AM and Noon on Sundays for Brunch
 Nice indoor and outdoor tables with a fresh Decor complete with LED lighting and stone tiled walls and a view of the glass wine cellar. Plenty of Flat Screen TVs inside for the sport enthusiasts.
The hostess greeted us and sat us down right away brought out the coffee ($2.25) and kept the cups filled up with Illy Coffee till the end. She didn't rush us either and it was a great Breakfast.
I ordered the Feta Cheese & Spinach Omelet ($9) egg white it came out with yellow all over and just realized it after the waitress was sorry and asked if I wanted to change my plate but I didn't want to bother, it would take too long. It came with home fries they had pieces of caramelized onion in it and Toast.
My Fiance ordered the Steak & Eggs ($12) - 8 oz. NY Strip Steak, 2 eggs any style, salsa fresca comes with Toast. The steak was good a bit small though, cooked nicely and tasty.
The combo Breakfast #3 ($8) - 2 Eggs, any style with Pancake or French Toast,    Sausage or Bacon, Potatoes, Toast  was a good value.
Great Service on the Beach great relaxing Views, good food brings not just tourists but repeats, Ill be back to this staple of Ft-Lauderdale.
Got lured in by the 2-4-1 margaritas. While they were delicious, the $16 (for one) price tag + $5 added gratuity was a shocker. The waiter completely ignored us after dropping off our drinks. I was not impressed. We did not order food here. The plates coming out around us looked delicious though.
Review Source:We went to spazio after walking down the boardwalk and looking at the menus and crowd.
We decided it would be fun since there was live music with a dancer and the menu sounded good :)
We were so disappointed!!! Other than 2 for 1 jumbo margarita (16$ not bad at all ) food was bland and service left alot to be desired. our waiter was to busy flirting with the lady next to us that he didnt bring us our bread or water (we had to ask for it few times).
When it came to getting our checks ofcourse he was to busy flirting to realize we were done with our meal and wanted to leave.
Anyways on to our meal
We had the fried eggplant with mozzarella, that was very good so no complaints
One of my friend and I ordered the chicken piccata and neither of us finished it , not cause of the portion size because it was just not good. It was bland and really I would of been better off ordering more fried eggplants.
My other friend ordered the pesto shrimp. And it was the same, bland and unappetizing.
In the end, save your money there are other good places to eat.
I really enjoyed my food at Spazio last night! Crispy eggplant and mozzarella appetizer and the spinach and goat cheese salad were impressive and presented beautifully. Everyone else was happy with their meals also. The atmosphere was much better than all of the other restaurants on the strip. My only complaint was with the giant 2 for margaritas, they tasted of watery sour mix and nit much more. I expected a much better cocktail at such a nice place, next time I'll stick with wine but there definitely will be a next time! Oh, the live guitarist and flamenco dancer were great!
Review Source:Disappointed to say the least.  Staff was friendly, music was nice.  They even had a live entertainer that played saxophone and played "happy birthday" on his sax which was really nice...BUT the two stars is for the quality of the food!  It was not up to par with the pricing that they were shooting out.  I ordered a pasta dish that had clams, mussels, shrimp, calamari, and fish tossed in linguini in a red sauce...eh...lacked tremendous flavor and the presentation really threw me off lol....They wrapped it up in aluminum foil, shaped in a large swan?!!!  LOL  Reminded me of something you'd find at a  hotel...you know, the one where they turn a towel into a swan?!  Does not belong on a plate. Â
Second...the portions were just unacceptable! Â My boyfriend ordered their salmon and they served him a 4 oz salmon that cost $24???????? Â HUH? Â AND he said the fish was NOT fresh... Â I really had a problem with the fact that they served scooped mashed potato with fish? Â Not a good combination. Â Usually, people who order fish are trying to watch what they eat and in my opinion, a hearty side like mashed potato should be paired with a hardy protein like beef or chicken not FISH!!! Â Not to mention how they used an ice cream scooper to slap the plate, something you'd expect from a cafeteria or public school LOL Â Very disappointing. Â
Their smoked salmon on flat bread topped off with cream cheese mousse was damn good though...but that's the only nice thing I have to say about their food/menu...Don't bother going here...Not really worth it unfortunately.
Mother's Day Celebration was exciting at Spazio's. We visited Spazio's with my Mom, Auntie Betty, Kimberly and her daughter Rebekah. Kim had the seared tuna salad and she loved it. My Mom had the jumbo shrimp spagetti and she ate it all, Rebekah had the thin crust pizza and Auntie Betty had leg of lamb. I had the chicken spinach alfredo and it was delicious. Fun place, good food, amazing ocean view.
Review Source:Spazio, which bills itself as "Mediterranean," is one of the better decorated more classy establishments and as such a standout amongst the tourist traps lining this area of  South Fort Lauderdale Beach Boulevard. Both the inside dinning area as well as the outside dinning area are distinctly better in appearance, neater, cleaner than most of the others, the service somewhat better, a far better wine selection and more varied menu offering. Like the others, however, it does offer the standard 2 for 1 drink specials. As for food quality, taste and price, I've found the quality good, the taste and preparation rather average and the price, though high for what you get reasonable in comparison to the others along this beach strip area.
What I really do like about Spazio is that the outside patio dinning area offers a great somewhat elevated view of the beach and the street without the downside of being a part of the street traffic.
STAY AWAY
my girlfriend and myself were in South Florida for her 30th birthday. We had a great day and wandered into this establishment and to say the least, it has been the topic of our discussions.
We went directly to the bar and sat for about 10 minutes with nobody noticing us. There was one other couple at the bar eating. After trying to get attention of the bartender, he came over to us and we asked for some drinks. He said and I quote.."We are a very busy and i hate it..I am very rich and only do this for fun. I hate it when it js crowded"..He went on to say that, "If we wanted service that we would get better service on the patio"
My girlfriend and I looked at each other in amazement, stopped for a few minutes and then walked out....We were so offended that we have looked at pictures of the staff and he is nothing more then a bartender who thought he must have been in Hollywood and had booked the next big show on NBC.
The rich/bartender slash douce-bag is about 6 foot 2, balding, strong jaw, dark hair late 30's and lanky. If you look at some of the pictures on Yelp he i serving cocktails...
If you encounter this clan of then Rockefellers, run as far as you can...
Stay far away from this place....
If we thought 13 for dinner Friday night was challenging let's throw in a few kids under 10 & 5 and turn this into a table for 21 on Saturday night at Spazio's Fort Lauderdale Beach next to the Elbow Room on the corner of Las Olas. Â Nicely appointed place with glass enclosed wine rack, large center bar, patio seating with live music and the 21 of us down the entire wall on the left where you walk in. Seated quickly and a bevy of servers took drink and glass of wine orders. Â They started piling on Pellegrino on the table where all the kids where and that came to a stop very quickly. Â Things like this really piss me off. Â If they started on my end it wouldn't have happened but 4 bottles later we caught it so they get a strike from me to start.
To keep the younger group happy a few flat bread pizzas were ordered along with some regular pizzas to take the food edge off, and they were both actually quite tasty if not expensive for the size of each.  A couple of Cold Antipasto platters were ordered for the table which were OK.  ANTIPASTO MISTO for two or more Parma Prosciutto, Mortadella, hot Sopressata, marinated olives, fresh mozzarella, Parmigiano-Reggiano and roasted peppers  Very little prosciutto, peppers were canned, eggplant gummy and Mozzerella not homemade, I hate Mortadella and the Sopressata was Ugh. Beefsteak tomatoes were pretty good.  CRISPY EGGPLANT & MOZZARELLA Marinated in infused basil oil with a balsamic reduction was dry fried eggplant very little sauce.  All and all I'd say the appetizers aside from pizzas and flat breads were a failure.
Entrees better some good some bad. CHICKEN PENNE ALFREDO, Grilled Chicken, spinach, Alfredo sauce, served over penne pasta pretty good plus special of the night was same dish with Vodka Sauce which was excellent. Â
2
CENTER CUT FILET MIGNON 10oz. Center-Cut Filet Mignon in mushroom sauce, served with sautéed spinach and mashed potatoes $34.95 Very tasty with good sauce
PORTERHOUSE STEAK
24 oz. Porterhouse Steak, grilled to perfection, served with roasted potatoes and broccoli $42.95 not very good this isn't Morton's entirely overpriced cut of meat
VEAL CHOP MILANESE or PARMIGIANA
Herb-breaded Veal Chop, served over arugula with tomatoes and red onions $31.95 1 of each ordered best thing on the table, massive plates large pounded veal chop and prepared both ways were excellent
CHICKEN PARMIGIANA
Served with spaghetti Pomodoro $16.95 compared to the veal chop above not very good. The sauce was really Olive garden esque :( Â
CHICKEN ROLLATINI
Chicken Breast stuffed with fontina cheese and spinach in a brandy-cream sauce $17.95 Very good
CHICKEN PICCATA
Pan-seared Chicken Breast, lemon-butter sauce with capers and tomatoes, served with vegetables and mashed potatoes $17.95 (Bland)
ATLANTIC STERLING SALMON
Pan-roasted Sterling Salmon filet topped with beurre-blanc sauce, artichokes and capers, served with vegetables and mashed potatoes $22.95 Fresh but sauce was again very bland
GROUPER MARE CHIARO
Fresh Grouper, pan-seared in a white wine sauce with mussels and clams, served with broccoli $26.95 very tasty fresh fish sauce was light and not overpowering.
A few basic pasta dishes and more ny style pizzas went down the kids end of the table to fill the bellies.
no deserts were tried. Considering the size of group the service was really impeccable. They accommodated a large party on Easter weekend on Saturday night. Â Food was hit or miss. Â This is really one of those 2.5 star spots. I can't give it 3 though. Â Noting stood out except the veal chops and filets and the Pellegrino onslaught early on soured me. Â Give it 2 stars really 2.5.
The worst! My fiancé and I love dining out and finding hidden gems or downright good food. This was neither. The best that can be said is location since it is on the beach. I ignored the negative reviews but I shouldn't have. The food was bland, drinks watered down, menu was basic, specials menu was a folded piece of paper, food was bland, and last but not least...WAY OVERPRICED! $207 for a party of two with gratuity already added in! Sad part is that just last week I spent $350 at Truluck's for a party of four with everything 1000% better than last night. Lesson learned...
Review Source:Me and my wife went here on valentine's day.
The ambience of the restaurant was nice. (Little flashy but nice). The appetizers we ordered were really nice and tasty. We also ordered a pizza, I expected a pizza at a italian restaurant to be better, like with a thinner crust but the pizza was tasty. The dessert selection was mostly cheesecakes but we took the lava cake with vanilla ice cream, it was delicious.
On the whole, the food was tasty ,but I thought was little over priced, especially $15 for a small appetizer is steep.The entree portion-price was ok though.
This place is a good one to go to before sunset as it is right across street from the beach.
I am planning to go back soon.
This is one of the classier establishments fronting Ft. Lauderdale Beach, right near the "100" sign. Â If you're looking for a nicer cafe type of atmosphere or someplace to go on a date (vs. rowdy bar food type of place) then eat at Spazio. Â They have the same 2-4-1 drink specials as all the other bars.
I had difficulty picking out what to eat as I really wanted a sandwich, but the selection was lacking. Â It's probably a better place to go for dinner, since they had a lot more choices of dinner meals. Â I settled on the gnocci. Â I love gnocci, and you don't have to do much to do it to make it taste good, but it was a little bland. Â About 1/3 of my dish was not hot -- almost like it had been microwaved and not stirred or something. Â Feeling unsatisfied, I ordered a side of fries which were delicious (they're the fries with the little bits of batter on them to add a perfect crunch.)
We all ordered huge margaritas. Â Mine simply tasted like margarita mix, and I could tell it was darker in color than my friend's drinks so it must have not had very much alcohol in it. Â One of my friends' drinks was also really weak. Â We complained and the bartender poured a lot more alcohol in it which was nice. Â If you get a weak drink just ask for more alcohol.
Great food , good service. Don't like that they let people smoke while your trying to eat! Its just nasty when your smelling cig smoke and trying to eat, not pleasant at all but they were accommodating and  let us move to another table even though i think they should of moved the smokers!.
Review Source:I was just about to give up on this vacation as the worst food endeavors of all time until eating at Spazio's -- two nights in a row. Wonderful food. I had the zuppa di mussels and couldn't get enough so I ordered it the second night as well. Delicious. I loved the salad, the garlic infused olive oil dipping sauce(I don't eat bread) but I ate there's. Awesome! Thank goodness. This trip has been saved.
Review Source:Flew in from California to visit my bf and his family back in August while he was on leave. We found Spazio's and ate here 3 out of the 5 nights we were local. I couldn't get enough of the salmon! The live music was amazing too! Flew in again a few nights ago and couldn't wait to come back for more. Tonight he had the linguine vongole, it was really good, lots of clams too and your choice of red or white sauce. I of course had to go with the Atlantic Sterling Salmon again, its pan roasted topped with beurre-blanc sauce, artichokes and capers, served with veggies and mashed potatoes. The service is always good, very friendly wait staff and great bartenders that make a mean margarita!
Review Source:I might have eaten a little too much here.
I stopped in here with a buddy after rolling around Ft Lauderdale for the day. Â We were famished and slightly buzzed. Â I can say that I thought the food quality was rather good comparatively to other places I ate in Ft Laud. Â Our experience might have been a bit atypical.
We started with a bottle of wine which was delivered promptly. Â It wasn't a fantastic bottle but it did the trick for having something to sip on while we waited for our food. Â When the food came out, that's when the fun began.
I think my friend ordered seafood for 6.
Only he and I were seated at the table.
This was a massively awesome platter. Â It contained a whole lobster, oysters rockefeller, shrimp, clams and mussels. Â They even had some risotto in the center which was surprisingly well prepared. Â When the second plate came, I gasped as I saw that size of the steak that he ordered. Â Clearly, it was time to chow down.
We finished it all. Â Spazio threw us dessert for free. Â The blueberry cheesecake was pretty damn awesome.
The bill was not.
Moral of the story, don't let your drunk friend who speaks spanish order for you.
Like I said, this was my experience. Â You should come here. Â You will probably enjoy it.
I LIKE this place! Â Very chic interior - all white with beautiful high walls textured with ambient lighting everywhere. Â A very large ocean front bar (located right on the beach strip of Fort Lauderdale on A1A) with a great view of passer by and the sea. Ocean breezes feel refreshing as you sip amazing margaritas or whatever you beverage of choice may be. Â Behind you is an impressive (very tall - Â maybe 30 feet) wine room that is a sight in itself. Â Excellent service. Â We came in late on a slow (off season Tuesday) night, but were served promptly and had a good time. Â A treat for the senses - excellent sound system played exotic music. I'll definitely be back, and next time for more than drinks!
Review Source:Gave it one star as the drinks were tasty. Â What bothered me though was that the drinks - Bloddy Marys and Mimosas are normally $11 each. Â Come on guys. Â Getting folks to buy 2 for 1 and charge them those prices for drinks that are not that expensive is really a turn off. Â Thats how much you should for the two of them anyway. Â What they do and other establishments on the beach do is also include the gratuity. Â I don't think thats appropriate. Â Let us tip for the service we got not the amount you'd like us to leave.
Review Source:Ayy Spazio, you fool me every time.
Your food is decent for the price and the views are perfect, but the BOGO deal is a ripoff. Â They advertise 2 for 1 mimosas, bloody mary's and margaritas. Â What they don't tell you is that the price of one drink is probably what you would spend buying two! Â
If you're stopping by for the drink deals, keep on moving.
Pretty decent place. Nice location, good music when it's not blasting the entire neighborhood. Meaning, I have been there on a Sat night and the guitar musician and the belly dancer were great ambiance. But the same week I went there a few days later on a Weds night and the same act was there but the music unbearably loud. We could not hear each other, and one of my friends walked away with the worse headache. And no we're not old fuddy duddies. LOL
Atmosphere is very pretty with all the white and nice lighting.
Food is pretty good as well for being a tourist spot on the beach.
Eggplant and muzz was ok.
Calamari with the wasabi aioli was a great idea and very yummy.
Herb Whole Red Snapper meal was amazing, three of my friends fell in love.
The lobster ravioli was also pretty good, though they put a little too many cherry tomatoes in it for my taste.
Bruschetta was one of the better ones I had. and Yes I know I'm spelling that wrong.
All and all a good beach place to go, just make sure you can hear each other before you sit.
I work at a hotel down the street from here and when people ask me for an Italian place within walking distance, unfortunately this is one of the only options so I figured I had to give it a try. I was completely and totally unimpressed by this restaurant-- the only reason it even deserves 1 star is because of its location.
To say that I left completely disappointed would be an understatement. They try to pitch you on the "2 for 1" margarita specials... but they still charge ~$16.50 for one margarita! This wouldn't be so bad since they are "giant" drinks, except that the margarita was all syrup, no alcohol. Â My friend couldn't even finish his drink and we both left the restaurant feeling sick from ingesting all that syrup.
As for the food: Â mediocre at best. Â I got the chicken parm and my friend got the chicken alfredo. Both dishes completely lacked in flavor, and definitely were not worth the $16.50 they charged.
The service was truly terrible and our table was dirty (white table with black stains everywhere). Â I asked the waitress for water before ordering our drinks, but she never bothered to bring any water. It took her forever to even come back by to take our order (she walked by the table at least 4 times without even acknowledging us, and would walk right over to her friends and just start chatting). She didn't bring the food out to our table, she had a bus boy do it-- and then she waited about 20 min to even come by to ask us if everything was OK with our order. Â After she finally came by, it took her another 20 min for her to acknowledge us again so I could get a box. Â Then, it took another 20 min for her to come back by to offer the check. Even ringing up the check took forever!
When it came time to pay, I gave her a 10% off card that I had, only for her to come back to tell me that since we got the "2 for 1" special she couldn't honor the coupon. She was completely unapologetic and didn't seem concerned with our satisfaction at all.
Finally, they automatically add tip to all checks, which I understand for large groups but for two people it seems a little ridiculous. I have no problem leaving 20%+ tips, but I hate being forced to leave set tips for terrible service. Â Also, they calculate the tip on the "pre-discount" total.
I honestly don't mind paying premium prices for high quality food/service/atmosphere, but I left with an extremely bitter taste in my mouth and I will never return, nor will I ever recommend this restaurant to any of my guests.
This is the best pizza in Florida. Bar none. If you grew up near New Haven, CT, this isn't Pepi's, but it's as close as you get in the Sunshine State.
Thin crust, light on the sauce, well done and crispy on the bottom and edges.. Yummy! And it's right on the beach, so you can watch the ocean and go for a late night beach walk when you're done eating.
Sometimes it can be a bit loud on the weekends, so if you're into quieter meals with low conversation like I am, plan on trying a weekday night first.
For the record, I can't vouch for their other offerings, but I've heard that all of their food is tasty.
Enjoy!
I never experience such a bad service at a restaurant before.
Even though I liked the setting and people watching, enjoyed the music as well... the service and the food were mediocre at best.
The waiter we had, never came back to ask about the food or if we needed anything at all. He just dissappeared. We paid $68.34 which was pretty expensive for two people and the quality of food and service didnt match the price.
Also, we came home to find out we were charged a whopping $80.45 which didn't make any sense. Â Beware that they include the tip fee in the bill. We didnt know so we overtipped.
It was all in all a bad experience.
I wouldn't go back if they paid me..
My girlfriend and I went to Spazio for an early dinner and were not impressed at all.
I ordered a Ceaser salad to open and a Seafood pasta dish. She ordered a Ceaser Salad and Gnocci. The lettuce in the ceaser was inedible and was 1/2 brown. $6 each for dying lettuce. The cheese was fine... but If I had lettuce like that at home it would be thrown out in a minute. My meal was served lukewarm. It was presented to the table very nicely - in a duck foil that was cut open at the table... too bad it wasn't cooked properly. Her Gnocci was fine... to quote "It's ok... not great, but not terrible".
The bill came to $90 with added tip (15%). No wine or liquor, just soft drinks, salad and meal. Biggest waste of $90 I've spent this year.... Next time i'll just go to IL Mulino on Sunrise, spend 35% less and get a 200% better meal.
The service was fine... Nothing spectacular... but not horrible. It wasn't crowded... but it wasn't dead... looked 40-50% full. But they just didn't seem to care much... The attitude seemed to be that since they were on the beach and cool, they didn't need to work very hard. Great view of the beach, outdoor seating, poorly prepared food and mediocre service.
