Gibraltar Restaurant at Grove Isle, FL

Gibraltar Restaurant- Grove Isle, FL
 
I visited a spectacular waterfront restaurant which is located in a private isle called Grove Isle. It is located in the Coconut Grove, FL area. It is a restaurant that is located inside Grove Isle hotel. The restaurant specializes in seafood; however, it has quality poultry and meat as well. When it comes to seating, I recommend you request a table outside by the water. The restaurant has two options for outdoor seating. The first is literally right outside the door when you head out. But there is a much more intimate and romantic option. There are tables right on the edge of the water and each table sits on its very own rock which is separated from the other.
 
The service was great. Despite the fact that we are far from the actual restaurant, the waiter was on top of us without being overbearing and passing by too often. The food was delicious. I had a half chicken which came with sweet potato. It was filling and it had a very deliciously seasoned flavor. My husband had the Filet Mignon with truffle fries. I had a piece of the steak and it was nicely cooked to perfection. The truffle fries were to die for. To finish, we had the cookie skillet which had chocolate chip and raisins and it was topped with vanilla ice cream. Soooo delicious. :)
 
Overall, no complaints. There is valet parking which costs $8. After dinner, take a stroll on the paved walkway for an even closer look at the water. I recommend 7PM dining and definitely make a reservation. Something to keep in mind, the seating is on a first come first serve basis so make sure you get there a little before your RSVP time.
