Appetizers were yummy (crab cake and tuna). My Cod was perfect, and my husband devoured his pork chop! We took our desserts to go. Sandbar was a perfect Mother’s Day for us two “empty nesters.” Thanks James, Dan, Jose and our server Brandon.

Can’t go wrong. From beginning to end a fabulous meal. We have been there several times and have tried everything on the menu. Each plate is better than the last. Service is friendly and timely.

The food was prepared perfectly, and the chef personally brought our food to the table. We had the Cod fish, swordfish and salmon, and all were delicious. Highly recommend the Sandbar. Wonderful night!

Good food. Nice setting. Hostess made us feel welcome and so easy to park. I hate having to worry about where to put the car or having to pay for valet

We ate dinner at the sandbar during restaurant week and was very impressed with the menu and food. The duck tacos were delicious and the deserts ( lava cake and ricotta donuts) were to die for. I the service was excellent. I highly recommend this restaurant.
