Wow! We went to Vue on 30a with my parents this week and it was so lovely. It overlooks the water and we took our time and enjoyed glasses of wine, a tuna appetizer, and our meals and just enjoyed our time there. Our server Griffin was amazing. It was a lovely setting overlooking the water and we will definitely be back.

We were greeted at the door with a warm and welcoming smile, setting the tone for a great dining experience. The grouper tacos were fresh and flavorful, and the grouper special was absolutely amazing. The staff was pleasant and attentive throughout our visit—even holding the door for us as we left, which was a nice touch. The restaurant offers beautiful views of the Gulf, with both indoor and outdoor seating options. It has a higher-end feel without being pretentious. A wonderful spot for a relaxed yet upscale meal by the water.

Get the Lamb Lollipops they were amazing! The view is incredible and the staff is very attentive and friendly. They even brought out Creme brûlée decorated up for a birthday wish. Be prepared for a little pricey menu but it’s worth it!

Casual resort dinning restaurant. Experience was good. Views are great and drinks were good. It took a bit to get drinks in the patio and a refill but our waitress was great regardless. I choose the pork tomahawk and the glaze/potatoes it comes with is unique, not bad, not great. My wife selected the southern fried chicken (with hot honey) and that by far was the best choice and recommend that.

I planned my proposal here, and it could not have been more perfect. From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly attentive and welcoming. The food was absolutely amazing, and the drinks were just as impressive.
A special thank you to my server, Jenna, who went above and beyond to help coordinate everything. I called ahead of time, and she was extremely helpful, proactive, and attentive throughout the entire evening. The team even took photos for us and made sure every detail was just right.
They truly helped create a moment my fiancée will never forget. She was so happy, and everything turned out perfectly. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience — highly recommend!

Sat outside at night. Heaters provided. Sound of the waves crashing in the background. Walked out on deck and had a perfect view of stars. Great service, just very busy. Ordered Pimento cheese appetizer. It was very tasty. Ordered Shrimp and Scallops entree. It was cooked perfect and was very flavorful. Can not wait to go back.

This is our new favorite spot on 30A and I am hesitant to share it because it’s hard enough to get a reservation! The floor and atmosphere were wonderful and it was definitely the best dinner experience we had during our vacation. Add to that how friendly and attentive the service was and you have a winning spot. P.s. they also made the best Martini in Florida!

We celebrated our tenth anniversary where we married in 2015: Vue on 30a. The food, ambiance, and especially the service made for an unforgettable anniversary dinner.
The manager helped me make this occasion extra special. We communicated by phone and email to set up an arrangement that included a printed and framed anniversary message and a bottle of prosecco. The setup was fantastic and the manager checked on us multiple times during our dinner.
We were seated by the window with a spectacular gulf view at sunset. The server was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. The food was worthy of a ten year wait.
Thanks to the team for making us feel like VIPs. I hope you’ll be around for many anniversaries yet to come.

Superb. For starters the Vue of the Gulf, especially at sunset is well worth a reservation. Next the servers are engaging and personal. Finally the fare is fantastic. Portions are presented poignantly and prove quite tasty.

The place is super nice!!! Where we sat was an ocean view when the sun was setting and It was so magical. The drink menu was very large, but the food menu was a bit small. I got the soup of the day, seafood gumbo and it was okay. There was spice too it but the roux was off. It tasted like tomato. The shrimp was very good, I had it fried and steamed. Best of all though, was their mac and cheese. So yummy and the cheese was so delightful. One note I would give, is the to go box’s are very tiny, maybe make them a bit bigger???? To end on a good note, the music was great, Fleetwood Mac was playing!!! My favourite!!!!
