    From this being one of three restaurants connected to castaways, you could have really fooled me. The presentation on the drinks and the food is far below par. I feel like McDonald’s does more of a presentation on a to go order than what I got here. The food itself wasn’t all that good. Comparing my anniversary brunch at castaways to this place I cannot see how they are connected in any way I would consider that. The customer service wasn’t bad, although it got better once they heard me talking about my experience as I was talking to my Girlfriend. All in all I will not be coming back I won’t be recommending this place to anybody. If someone says that they are going, I will be quick to offer a different place.

    This was our second year visiting for Valentine’s Day and our server, Christine, made it more special than the first. She was kind, quick with help, and took good care of us. 10/10 service. Food and drinks were a 10/10 as well!
