Great food, good portions, the server was great. We sat outside which was beautiful. The music was very loud which makes it hard to talk.

Good experience dining at 7pm on a busy Saturday night - food came out VERY fast! It was perhaps a little more salty than my preference but hot and good.

Food was really good. We sat outside and the ambiance was nice but can get a little loud. Great view of the ocean (which is across the street). Sits on a street so lots of car traffic but not too bad. The parking is a little congested. we parked in the hotel valet area and they discounted it since we were going to the restaurant only. Server originally started out good but after our food came she definitely disappeared. Seemed a little annoyed when my dinner mate asked for some type of sauce for her raise as it seemed really bland and had no real flavor to her. Would have ranked higher had the service been better.

Fabulous and fun dinner! We had two family members that joined us last minute and they graciously accommodated the change in our party size while extremely busy. Staff was attentive and interactive and vibe was so fun!
