    "I really want to highlight how incredibly beautiful this location is. I loved the décor — the palm trees, the stylish all the little details. Everything looks gorgeous, and there are stunning photo spots right by the waterfront. As for the food, I really enjoyed the tuna appetizer — it was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is great, the service is good, and overall the place feels very welcoming. I did try the octopus as well, and it was a bit overcooked, with too much garlic added. For the quality, the price for that dish felt a little too high. But overall, I’ll definitely be coming back, and I truly recommend this restaurant for any occasion."

    "Cannot speak enough about the Gulf and John there. We had our wedding reception here in the private room upstairs and it was PERFECT! We had about 65/70 people in there and it was not cramped at all! The food was amazing, John was so great to work with from pricing, catering, helping us get the best for our money and not being pushy or over selling. There was another wedding outside that was going on and I had no idea that’s how separated and well thought out the venue is! There was plenty of parking too! We also came on a week day just to check it out and it’s such a cool spot from food, games, water view, CANNOT RECOMMEND ENOUGH"
