We both ordered the chicken tortilla soup, and it was amazing -- incredibly rich, flavorful, and comforting. Definitely a standout! Service and food were both excellent. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that the inside of the restaurant smelled a bit stale, and unfortunately the women's restroom had an unpleasant odor. Hoping that's something that can be addressed, because otherwise it was a really great lunch experience.

I can't 100% say there is better food in different locations around town, but if you're looking for a fun vibe, this could be the spot. Personally, I would skip the fish tacos, they were tasteless and super boring. The fried grouper was pretty tasty, but there is better in other places around town. The shrimp caesar is also pretty good, nothing amazingly amazing, but still better than the tacos. Honestly, if I'm back in town, I'm probably skipping this spot.

I had the linguine with vodka sauce and added blackened chicken. The chicken was extremely dry and I was unable to finish it. The serving size of pasta I also found to be small especially for quite a high price point. The price point of the entire menu I think is also much too high for what you are getting. The edamame gyoza were only 4 in one dish and we also shared the hummus board which was very small for an expensive price. I think they should definitely be re-evaluating how their menu is priced for their portions and the meals themselves.

It had handmade items by local artists. Consisting off of things from necklaces & earrings, to photographs and shell art. What a wonderful eclectic store. I will be back if I'm in the area.

Every single plate came out beautifully and tasted great. The atmosphere is relaxed, the food is impressive, and Brian truly elevated the experience with his service. We will definitely be back and it is largely because of him.
