The prawn tacos and miso sablefish with risotto are standout dishes. While some found portions small, the "beautiful view" and "lovely ambiance" make it a favorite Steveston spot.

We had a patio table in the glorious sunshine. Our server was a young man and he was very cool. Wine was chilled. Burgers were delish and ambiance was fabulous

The location is lovely and we were given the option to eat outside or inside. We ate inside and perhaps they didn't have the staff to serve indoors. We were served menus right away and water a bit later. It took awhile for the waitress to take our orders. When the food arrived we needed to ask for spoons and something to put the seafood shells in. The food arrived and looked great. Most of us loved our food. The salmon dish I had was phenomenal and cooked to perfection. My daughter loved her shrimp tacos . My husband tries Cioppino everytime its available on a menu. He said is was ok compares to others he has tried. The amount of seafood was good but there was little tomato base/soup and he felt it lacked flavour/spice. No one came by to check if we were ok with our food. There wasn't a lot of staff around to flag someone that we needed our waters topped up. After a bit of a wait someone did come by and take our plates but then we waited again a long time for any further follow up. Overall I feel the overall food experience was good but the service just seemed lacking. But when the waitresses came they were polite and friendly.

The oysters were excellent but the salmon was dry and overcooked. The burger was good but the chicken wings were just average
