We stopped here as we were hungry after the long journey through the jungle road.
What a wonderful place. I mean the service forget about it, excellent.
But the fresh fish was amazing. We had it both in ceviche and then cooked style. Check out the pics.
You can sit in the shade. You can sit in the sun. Just have some fun and chill.
What a great wonderful cool restaurant café. clustered together. There’s a coffee shop and then there’s the restaurant and they all kind of work together if you will.
Highly recommend this place if you’re on the island.

Yeah, I’ve never been to a “private beach club. I heard the term beach club and I thought totally something different being American. But it’s really cool, it’s basically a private area you can go and rent a space for the day and hang out.
Love this one, very secluded, really big open area with a giant full bar and great service.
You can get a cabana or just beach chairs. You get the privacy of people not being able walk up to you trying to sell you stuff from the public beach.
You have your own waiter, waitress, covered, or uncovered seating in terms of sun protection, and they come to you frequently for whatever you want drinks water, etc. does not come with towels, I think it was seven dollars for the day. The price is right as well. For one chair for the whole day it’s $30USD includes 2 to 4 drinks of your choice. Depending on what you order. It’s the best price I’ve found in playa beach clubs.
The food here is amazing. I’ve had the ceviche every time and it’s one of the best in Playa. And the service is great. The people are great. Ask for Ami. She’s awesome.
This is a cool concept wish we had more of these in the US.
Not sure about parking. Basically you would have to park on the street. I think this is meant for people just walking up. If you’re in the surrounding hotel or condo in the area.
Would I go here again? Heck yeah! Plan on it a lot.

I’ve been here a few times and for Cajun it’s decent.
I ordered the oyster po’boy with extra oysters, which has an up-charge, which I don’t mind, I find that almost all places don’t put enough oysters on their sandwich for some reason. In New Orleans they pile them on to where they fall off the plate.
I found the oysters to be a bit over fried and small, glad I ordered extra. 😛. They were a bit over salty for me. The rest of the sandwich was flavorful, the bread, which is very important to any Cajun po’boy was good along with the lettuce, tomatoes and spread. Overall a decent sandwich but I’ve had a lot better on canton street.
The steak tacos - classic beef tacos were a bit pricy at $18 for two and only one side. The tacos were delicious but the hush puppy side was dry and had no flavors.
The classic burger was flavorful along with the side of fries.
Tip - Sundays are $.50 raw oysters, they were fresh and delicious.
Service was great. Greeted at the door BU the hostess with a smile and seated immediately with reservations. The waitress was perfect. Never needed anything, covered us perfectly.
Parking, like all of canton street is sparse and $10 if you can find a spot.
Would I go again? Sure, to hang with friends but not for Cajun food. There is a better tasting Cajun restaurant down canton street and have there own parking lot with plenty of spaces at no charge.

I love this place. I think it’s one of the best authentic Italian American style restaurants in Georgia.
Family owned and family run, mom is in the back making the sauce it’s all in here. The Marinara is exquisite. I have never had a bad meal here or a bad time here.
This time we ordered the calamari for an appetizer - Man was it soft pounded perfectly breaded perfectly and the marinara sauce deliciously went together very very well popped in your mouth flavors.
The veal Limon was amazing perfectly pounded to the perfect width, breaded so lightly then pan fried - perfect flavor. the cream sauce and the capers just went very well together.
The next thing is not on their online menu so beware that their menu has changed. I don’t know what to call it but it was a large noodle pasta with arugula lettuce and Finnell sausage and a white cream sauce - it was delicious!!!! I apologize for the photos - I took them after the fresh Parmesan grated cheese was added on top so it’s hard to see. But let me tell you the dish was flavorful and rich - it was freaking delicious.
Love the atmosphere all old school male waiters only, cool bar quaint seating and tables.
Outside parking is limited so come early because they don’t take reservations.

Stopped by looking for a cool place on the beach to have some drinks and watch the game.
Really cool bar atmosphere, local sports bar vibe. Great assorted menu and huge covered bar seating area. When the weather is nice, there is beach seating.
We had fish ceviche and guacamole, and both were very tasty. The ceviche was Mahi Mahi, very fresh, but the overall flavoring was laking lime juice, pepper, and other seasoning, sun par in the flavor department.
The guacamole was very flavorful and had all the right levels of ingredients.
The drinks were string pours, always love that.
All in a cool place to hang with friends and have a few.
