    We always enjoy the food, Mai Tais and atmosphere … and this was no exception. The Wedge Salads were delicious with a side of Garlic Bread. The Chef’s Special Walnut Crusted Salmon was fantastic, as were the Swordfish and Macadamia Crusted Mahi Mahi.

    Food is great, drinks are fantastic, the views are amazing especially at sunset. Staff was friendly and prompt. Happening spot but not too loud. Great for a date or just a night out.

    There was nothing wrong with the food, but the overall experience was nothing impressive. Food was rather bland and portion of shrimp was small for a $26 plate. Honestly felt like a restaurant my grandma would pick.

    Service provided by the server was great. Food prices are higher than the quality of the food. Ambience is very casual which is not bad. It can attract loud customers or customers with such behavior such as banging on the table, calling out name of the server from across the room, and hitting on a female server.

    Dirtiest floors, carpet flooring they should’ve at least swept but they sat us down with absolute crumbs and leftover food on the floor. It was repulsive . Food was ok, server was forgetful for even just water for most of the meal but it was pretty busy.
