Overall- the atmosphere is the best part, don't come here expecting great food. I would recommend it if you want to stop for a drink on a hot day. They do have a pool, with drink service. Our food was just ok, presentation is unremarkable. I had the fried Mahi fish tacos, which were worse than the fish tacos at home, in Wisconsin which was very disappointing. The waiter swapped the blackened tacos and the grouper tacos we ordered. When we tried confirming which was which, he agreed and yet was incorrect. My daughters chicken meal was overcooked. We also ordered a gluten free salad, which came with croutons on it. When my dad ordered his gluten free burger, it came on a bun. I would not recommend Boathouse for anyone with an allergy as they do not seem to know how to properly serve their guests with care and concern. We waited around a lot as well, for water and our bill. I had really been looking forward to the experience, go for the atmosphere and drinks! Go elsewhere for food.

We visited the Boathouse for a casual birthday celebration and really enjoyed the ambiance and live music as well as the excellent service and pleasant demeanor provided by Stepheney R! Stepheney was so accommodating, fun and personable and made our experience special. One of us has a gluten allergy and she made sure he was taken care of while ordering and also helped with a fan closeby. Our food was delicious, including the Boathouse Burger, Beef Tacos, Grouper Bites, and more. Will be back soon!

Destinee was great! The food was a solid choice as well, and they have a handful of gluten free/friendly options (and a GF key lime pie too).
