I'm not sure what my review would have been pre kids, but with kids absolutely 5 stars. We sat on a picnic table overlooking the pirate ship play area (fenced in) and had a meal somewhat in peace (plus a baby haha) while our toddler had a blast. Pretty view of the water. Fun tropical drinks to pretend you're at a serious beach. Food was good, nothing to write home about, but I so very much wish we lived closer. It was truly the most peaceful meal we've had in ages.

Love the atmosphere, the food and beverages! Very family friendly with the perfect set up for adults to enjoy while children play on playground! Beautiful location too!

Husband & I are big IPA drinkers & whiskey lovers- so a tiki bar famous for crushes really never appealed to our "try-it-out" senses, but when a friend's band had a gig here, we found ourselves exploring the place. As expected, the drink list wasn't really our thing, but they offered one $4 game-day HH IPA beer & that worked fine- The band set up in the front area of the main dining area- they had minimal seating offered in the area, with the house rule picnic & high top tables were only for those ordering food- so just grabbing drinks when we weren't able to find bar seats, we found ourselves lingering against the wall off to the side- again that worked fine- During intermission we explored the space & were surprisingly impressed with how much they had to offer in the way of ambiance: -a complete pirate ship kids play area, fenced in allowing kids to play without wandering away -beautiful outdoor along the water seating laid out in rows or circle pit areas for hanging out with our drinks, enjoying the boat views -outdoor bar on the pier offering more great water viewing ambiance - back bar high top table areas positive aspect, the audio of the band carried all throughout each area, so while we began exploring during intermission we were able to remain hanging out on the water & still catch the show volumes very friendly waitstaff- as busy as the place was they kept lines moving, kept drinks coming quickly, and made quality drinks (so said our friends) would definitely visit again for another show- or bring the kids to enjoy the play area while we enjoy the water views

We really enjoyed our dinner here! My best friend and her husband and their two young girls met up with my husband and I are our two young kids. The kids had an absolute ball playing on the pirate ship! The outdoor play area is enclosed so they can't wander away or out of sight. My kids hardly wanted to eat dinner because they were having so much fun playing. We were sat at a table right by the ship so we could see the kids easily which was great. We had the coconut shrimp (delicious), chips and guac, a burger, a chicken sandwich, a crabcake, and a rice bowl. All of the food was exactly as described on the menu and really tasty. We also had a painkiller and a key lime crush, and a few beers between us. There was an acoustic guitarist when we got there and it seemed like a full band was setting up when we were leaving (around 8pm). I moved away awhile ago, but if I still lived in MD I'd be here every weekend!

I'm so shocked by the poor reviews! Came last saturday and it was exactly as expected. You obviously come here to enjoy the view with a good drink. There was a short wait, but we opted out to sit in the high top area in the back. It was very hot, and there were no fans, but that's why there was no wait. You can wait and get a fanned area. It was very crowded but we didn't wait too long for our drinks or food. The servers weren't overly helpful, but again, it was a busy Saturday in the back bar. The crowd ranged from teenagers to older folk, with the majority of people enjoying the bar. I was surprised at how good the food was! We ordered the crab dip, salmon BLT, and shrimp tacos. The salmon was so good and there were so many shrimp on the tacos! The whole facility had tons of cool areas, a children's sandy play area, another bar out back on the grass, and a sunset watching area with tons of Adirondack chairs. I truly feel like there's something for everyone.
