Cays Lounge

Lobster roll was the first I’ve ever had but was very good. Carnitas potato skins were cooked perfect and very flavorful. Service was good and prices reasonable.
Beautiful view from the outside seating area with shade, sun, and umbrellas for daytime. Nighttime offers fireplaces and a great place to stop for a late night snack or drink.

The food menu is underwhelming, small in size and mostly unhealthy. The food I ordered was good, but only because of the spice of the peppers (cherry peppers and habanero jack) and the chicken. The presence of white potato fries and and white ciabatta bread was disappointing. There was no chance to upgrade to a sweet potato fry or wheat baguette etc…
Service was also slow. You seat yourself, but then the time it takes for a server to locate you on the patio is a bit too long. We sat there wondering if we missed a hostess somewhere and if anyone would ever come over.
Once a server came she promptly took our order. Another person brought the food out to us. He was clueless as to table numbers and wandered all over the entire patio with our food even offering our two entrée plates to a group of three women that were standing up!
This restaurant is located on the Loews Coronado Bay Resort property. There is a nice patio and nice bay /​marina view. See my other reviews of Loews’ venues:
— I reviewed the hotel itself
— Mistral
— Market Café
All received better reviews than this place.

Brought wrong tequila… Cold food… Took forever for service… One time is enough.

I could’ve hung out here all day and night. The views are lovely, and the lounge furniture makes for a leisurely visit. I highly recommend the basil ginger martini. Service was so spot on! There aren’t too many food options, but the mushroom flatbread was decent. Firepits at night also add to the cozy ambience.

Ate here last year and it was mediocre at best for dinner, and the brunch was really bad. We keep a boat in their marina, so we are there a lot. The place has been recently redone, remodeled, new menu, new chef, etc. etc.
We decided to give it one more try…
It is so much better, we ate here a few days ago and it is actually quite good, and
you can bring your own wine, no extra charge !
They are starting a weekend prime rib buffet — we will be trying that next.
The prior reviews were spot on for last year, and accurate.
But the place has been turned around and we will be back to eat there !

Wow. The service here was horrid.
I was here for work and stayed an extra day to enjoy the island. Since the folks in the café and store were really helpful, I wanted to try out the place for breakfast with a few other friends in the hotel.
First, we needed to move tables to accommodate another couple. While that should be a relatively easy thing since there were other open tables, that took 10 minutes. Our new waiter acted with a pretty sour attitude for the rest of the meal. Not only was he not helpful, but it was obvious he didn’t want to be there. Therefore, we didn’t want to be there.
The food was great and I just wish the service matched at least the food quality.

I already left a review for the Loews hotel itself. The restaurant/​bar lounge in the lobby that has a balcony as well needs a review. The atmosphere and balcony are very nice. The food sucks. For a resort that should be 4 or 5 stars they seem to really lack behind. The ceviche and crab cakes were both marginal at best. The presentation was fine but the taste was somewhat gross. Both had a artificial or chemical taste to them. Maybe not the freshest ingredients or items from a can, not sure. We both thought it should have been so much better. Even the mimosa was average at best. We had breakfast the day before at hash house a go go downtown and their mimosa was 10 times better. I don’t even like mimosa’s as it’s not my drink of choice. Either way, don’t waste your money here. Go into downtown or eat somewhere on the island.
