    As usual, all was great except too much breading and too little fish on the fish and chips.

    Food was fantastic! Ahi salad was so perfect, no skimping on the Ahi. I did order a Cadillac Margarita but I am sure it was just a regular margarita. Not a big deal. My friend said her burger was the perfect medium. The fries both regular and sweet potato, were yummy. Loved the view from our table on the patio. We are local and wanted to take our family member somewhere where she would get the desert 🌵 vibe. GREAT PLACE. TORI

    We love Ernie’s and visit this time every year but felt food wasn’t as good as previous times. And $30 for a burger that was just average was too much. Our server Carolina was wonderfully attentive and pleasant and made the trip worthwhile!
