"Great experience overall. The staff was friendly and the service was quick, which is always a plus. The drinks were good and fairly priced. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich and it was perfect, not too thin or overly thick like some places do. Everything was just right. Would definitely come back."
"The Whale is back and better than ever. The food was delicious, the drinks were strong (just how they should be), and the atmosphere was great. You really can’t ask for much more. It’s located right across from the ocean, so the beach vibe is unbeatable. So glad to see them open again after the hurricane damage, definitely worth stopping in and supporting them. Highly recommend."
"So glad this place came back and is pumping out the same great food and fun beach vibes. 3 levels of restaurant to pick from and all were done so beautifully. 3rd level is currently only appetizers and drinks, which we opted for. Wings were outstanding, and Abbi and Delanie were great server / bartenders. Shuffle board downstairs is a plus!! 😉"
