TL;DR
The beachfront restaurant has very limited food options and little indoor seating. Children are not allowed in the evenings, and outdoor tables are exposed to sun and birds.
There are actually three of these beachfront restaurants — you can pick whichever is less crowded. One of them is called 'Palma'.
Comparing dinner on the 5th vs 6th floor: the 6th floor has a noticeably better selection (e.g., lamb and watermelon were available there but not on the 5th), while the 5th floor is much quieter with fewer people.
Recent feedback says this beachfront restaurant now serves a proper lunch, with a noticeably better selection than before. Reviewers also mention the second floor, which can sometimes be very quiet and uncrowded.
This spot is more of a photo opportunity than a proper meal destination. The menu is limited to pizza, drinks, and shisha. Children are not admitted in the evenings. If you want to catch the fire show, reserve a table early and come as a couple.
There is some indoor seating, but it is very limited. Most guests sit outside, where the sun beats down all day and crows are a recurring nuisance.
The food selection is very poor — limited variety and small portions. A seasoned visitor who has stayed at four different hotels in Sharm el-Sheikh rated this as the worst dining experience among them.
