" Our visit to Highlands Bar & Grill was absolutely remarkable! The moment we stepped in, we noticed the elegant decor and warm ambiance. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable about the extensive menu. We ordered the seafood platter, and each item was fresh and flavorful. The highlight of the night was the signature coconut cake that is simply to die for. Overall, this dinner was unforgettable and worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)

" What an experience! We had dinner here last weekend and were blown away by the delicious food and impeccable service. The triggerfish was cooked to perfection, and the presentation was beautiful. My partner had the beef cheeks which were incredibly tender. Every bite was a delight! The only downside was that it was a bit crowded, making it a little noisy at times, but overall, a fantastic dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night was our first time at Highlands, and it certainly won't be our last! The atmosphere struck the perfect balance for a celebratory dinner. Our waiter was genuinely enthusiastic and offered great insight into the menu. Each dish, from the appetizers to desserts, carried a thoughtful, gourmet flair. We shared the coconut cake, and it was richly decadent. There's truly nothing like dining here! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Highlands and it did not disappoint! The food was exquisite, with a focus on seasonal and local ingredients. I had the duck two ways which was expertly prepared and paired well with a nice red wine suggested by our waiter. The atmosphere was vibrant yet cozy, perfect for a special night out. I can't recommend this place enough, just be sure to make a reservation weeks in advance. It gets booked quickly! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a fantastic lunch at Highlands! The seafood choices were exceptionally fresh, and my salad was delightful. The drink selection is impressive, with plenty of local options. Our dining experience was great, but the prices are steep for a lunch outing. However, I'd still recommend it for dinner or a special occasion. " (*Curated Review*)
