The reviews were right on. They have an extensive menu and the food was excellent. I went with the waitress recommendation and I was very happy. The service was also great and the views are an added bonus, specially if you sit outside. I will definitely be back to try some of their other goodies!

Had a great time here with my wife! We set at the bar, and the bartenders were super friendly. They talked to us about the menu and recommendations. We started with an espresso martini for her and the pistachio martini for me at his recommendation. Both Martinis are absolutely amazing. We shared the bruschetta that which was really good and …

This restaurant is amazing! Service and food are top notch. The star of the show was the homemade pasta. I know......always eat seafood while at the ocean but their homemade pasta is phenomenal.

Surprised and delighted with how delicious the pasta was. We both had the pear Gorgonzola mushroom pasta that was homemade and you could really taste. All three flavors. The bread was crunchy and good and worth the $4 charge. Would definitely return if we were staying there!

Friendly staff, Excellent food, great atmosphere! Causal and upbeat vibe. Pasta dishes were amazing! We were definitely surprised how this little place is comparable to some of the fine dining Italian Restaurants with their pasta dishes. Drinks were great as well. Indoor/outdoor seating.

We visited Why Not? café and were very pleased with our experience! Our server, Fernanda, was incredibly friendly, attentive, and cheerful. She explained in detail which dishes contain meat, which was very helpful since we don’t eat it. Thanks to her, choosing our meal was easy and pleasant. We started with a pineapple fresh juice — it was natural, refreshing, …

Byron was fantastic. The muscles were great. The steak and onion rings were very good and the pasta was to die for. Couldn’t ask for a better place to sit at sunset. Thank you Byron for a great experience and personal attention. We appreciate the experience that you gave us tremendously.

Lovely restaurant with both indoor and outdoor seating. We sat outside on a clear evening. They have a menu at the front for you to look at without being pressured to eat there. The waitresses were very friendly. There is a good choice on the menu. We had the fresh fettuccine with chicken and BBQ burger with beacon. They were …
