It was our first time at the Fish Hopper Restaurant. Parking can be an issue as the lot is very small considering the number of seats inside. It was fun watching the people on the street and the activity in the water (swimmer, boats, etc.). Once in a while a vehicle went by blasting music, but hey, that is life on Ali,i Drive. Overall, we liked it and will be back at some point (too many other places we want to try).
