    What a pleasant surprise that this place with fantastic views also has great food and service. The calamari was the best I’ve ever had and shrimp tacos were loaded with yummy shrimp and other stuff. My friend’s fried shrimp were large and crispy. The skinny margaritas were great. And Grace, our server, was on point with napkins, and just checking on us.

    This was our first time here and we were delighted. We had an out of town family member with us and it was perfect for her. The view of the RVA skyline is beautiful. She had her first taste of shrimp and grits and it was so yummy. The happy hour offerings were great and plentiful. Our waiter could not have been any more charming and he provided great service. My shrimp tacos were heavenly. We will be back. Thank you!

    Very fun and lively atmosphere; we walked in with 11 after booking for 4 after some last minute changes, and were immediately accommodated. The host, manager, bartenders, and servers were all helpful and attentive throughout our experience. I highly recommend for large parties and convenience after getting off the boat.

    Outstanding service and food! Vegan chorizo tacos and pineapple guacamole were perfect for my vegetarian mother-in-law. Parking was a little difficult, but once we made it in the view from the patio made it worth it.

    Once again, it was wonderful and we had a great professional server. The birthday celebration for one of the three of us was fantastic and we enjoyed it thoroughly.
