    Our server was amazing (Rosemary, maybe??). She suggested the fried green tomato appetizer and it was incredible. My friend had the fried chicken for her entrée and I had a wedge salad with scallops. Loved every bite. She said her chicken was perfectly cooked and had a wonderful maple drizzle. The view was spectacular. Thank you, Vue on 30A for another perfect dinner.

    This has always been my favorite restaurant on 30A so I was super excited to make my reservations when we booked our trip. We have been coming here for 15 years and this is the first time I have ever been disappointed. They got rid of the Bogo from 5 to 6 PM And have changed their menu a lot! I always got either a grouper or scallop special they didn’t have either one so I had a hard time figuring out anything to get. I realize prices have gone up everywhere but for the hundred dollars we spent it was the most disappointing meal I have had there. Not sure if I will be back.😟

    For the most expensive restaurant on 30A. The service doesn’t equal the prices. Lack of attention by our server was inexcusable. Got more attention from the server at next table.
