    We had a great business lunch here. Easy to get separate checks, delicious food, cool ambiance. Service is terrific, very attentive and friendly. Nice shops in the same complex. I’m looking forward to coming back in the evening for what looks like interesting cocktails.

    We have dined here prior and the service and food was outstanding. This visit the service and people were still very good but the food was not as good. The sliders that my wife had was over marinated and my cheese burger was soggy and mushy. French fries were soggy also.

    One of the best meals we had while on the island. We tried just about every small plate and did their special for thanksgiving and every plate was eaten down to the last crumbs by the time they cleared them off our table. Would recommend for anyone looking for casual ambiance but delicious high end quality dishes & drinks.

    This use to be one of my favorite places before COVID. At that time the food was excellent. Today, it is just average. Not bad,not great. I had fish & chips. Fish was okay and chips were warm. For $22 I expect very good. Ambience is still great. Service is excellent.

    So I make reservations at 6pm for a table of 3. I get there and they said you can find any open table that is not reserved. So, I’m like what is the point of making reservations? And they was like those are for larger tables. Like what the heck

    The Caesar was ok, but the fish tacos may just have been the blandest I've ever had. The fish tasted like absolutely nothing. I was looking forward to the pizza, but it looked so anemic on other people's tables I decided against it. Service was swift, attentive and friendly.

    It’s a little different to order and seat yourself but, it works. Food was delicious and service was good! Will be back when I’m on that side of the island! Our server, Christopher was great. Very attentive and kind. The gentleman that served us our drinks was also super nice with a great personality, didn’t get his name.

    I generally like the ambience of the place, but the price has gone up, and the portions have definitely gotten smaller at least for the veggie platter. I usually get. Our server didn’t come by at all except at the initial sit down. Again, overall fun ambience but the value of the food to me is not Worth it anymore

    Friendly staff. Love the live music. Lots of seating options for different preferences: outdoors, quiet, bustling, bar, booth, standard seating. When a party of about 20 sat near our table of two, several staff checked on us to make sure we were still being served. Always a fun special pizza option to try, and menu standards like ramen, cheeseburger, taro ravioli. Definitely one of my favorite spots to dine.

    Got our appetizer as soon as we sat down and the lady that brought the appetizer (not even our waitress) came with water a couple minutes later. About 5-10 mins or so afterward, the waitress asked if we wanted anything else to drink and by that time we ordered everything, food and drinks. We waited without water for a while and when we finally waived the waitress down, she filled our water but she didn’t even ask if we wanted a refill on the soda. About 10 minutes TOO LATE, she randomly came back and asked if we wanted a refill when we were just sitting down waiting on our check. Service isn’t great at all, not just this time but every other time i’ve been here.
