    We had reservations for 7:30 PM as a party of 7. The restaurant was empty for a Friday night, before Halloween (10/30/26). We were seated in a booth that comfortably fit 4 and 1 seat was added to the end of the table. We had reservations for 7, not 5. We had to request additional seating and table setting for 3. We ordered spinach artichoke dip and requested extra chips. The bowl of dip was the appropriate size but a small bowl of chips that didn’t seem appropriate for the size of dip and this was “extra”. Four of us ordered the Chicken Piccata and it lacked flavor. It was more of a think cheese sauce with capers. The mushroom risotto was a bowl of cheese and mushrooms. We really wanted to like the food more and might give them another try. One of our guests had been there before and had a better experience with food. Maybe they just had an off night. We made the best of the evening. Decor was cute and fun!

    Had such a great experience at Nigel’s! The atmosphere was beautiful and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a night out with friends. The food and drinks were delicious, and the service was friendly and attentive. We also loved the complimentary Duffy boat ride! It was such a fun and unique experience that made the night even more special. Definitely a place I’d love to come back to!

    My friend suggested we try this place out for our last time hanging out before I move. And I loved it. The whole pink theme is soo cute! The service was great! We were immediately greeted while we were entering the area. They checked us in for our reservation, then let us choose to sit wherever we wanted. We had Maria as our server! She was so friendly and helpful. She had great recommendations! Drinks were so pretty and good! The food was delicious! Then we got to take a little boat ride afterwards! I plan to come back here again with more girlfriends when I’m back in town!

    Booked one of the cabanas for 7 of us on a Sunday at 1:30pm. First off, the place is SO cute. The cabana setup was adorable, the drinks were good, and overall we had an amazing time — but honestly, a big part of that was because I was with my girlfriends and we were there to have fun regardless. 😂 The vibe and atmosphere are really what brought this up to 4 stars for me. Otherwise, this probably would’ve been a 3. The service is SLOW. Like…sooooo slow. It took about 15 minutes before our server even came to the table. We got waters pretty quickly, thank goodness, because our actual drinks took almost 40 minutes from the time we sat down. We tried ordering the deviled eggs, but they were out. We also ordered the avocado toast tower, which was apparently forgotten and ended up coming out with our main dishes. The manager was nice enough to remove it from our bill, which I appreciated. Our server was actually very sweet, and everyone on staff was nice. It really wasn’t an attitude or hospitality issue at all — everything just took forever. For food, a couple of us got the steak. It was…okay. Nothing I’d come back specifically for. My friends ordered the chicken and waffles (nothing special..), and somehow my friend’s salad took the longest to come out. 😂 Like, how is the SALAD holding up the table?! The desserts are decent (chocolate cake and crème brûlée). I would also probably skip the cabana next time. There’s a $650 minimum, and for that kind of minimum spend, I would expect the level of service to match. Unfortunately, it just didn’t. The cabana itself is cute, but with how slow the service was, I don’t think it was worth committing to the minimum.

    Experience was great after being seated. Had a reservation at 1:15 and didn’t get seated until 1:45 felt like the host seat everyone before us and we were just a party of 6. A larger party that checked in after us was seated right away. When my table was ready I went back to the host and I said “I got a message that my table is ready and she replied “oh,” after seeing/passing by us multiple times that we were sitting by the bar area.

    My experience was very outstanding for my first time. Our server Trevor was very upbeat, kind and helpful. He broke down the menu to us which made it helpful for us to choose our dishes. Restaurant had a nice ambience and vibe to it. Would definitely go back in the daytime to check out their brunch/lunch options and environment. Good experience!

    Service was very slow and food arrived cold. Ambiance is very fun. Best part was the drink cart. The guy running it was very fun and engaging. He made an excellent drink.
