The staff recommended to add avocado so I did and it was a great suggestion. My husband got the plate with brown rice and veggies and was very happy - I think it was fresh caught yellowtail but another table had gone to the fresh fish area and ordered 2 lbs of halibut grilled with lemon butter and it was stopping passersby to inquire because it looked so good. Booze Brothers Hazy and their signature blonde were nice. I love this place for fresh healthy food. Great service, clean restrooms, and dining area. I'm craving this again right now!!!!

It's casual,…read morebut they have a counter full of so many different types of fish to choose from, and you can then choose how you want it prepared. So it's grilled and either comes in a sandwich, on top of a salad or with a rice pilaf. I chose the local swordfish on a salad and it was perfect for a warm and sunny day -- the patio seating made it even more perfect! My husband chose the yellowfin, also on a salad, and I tasted it, but it was a little too fishy for my taste. The swordfish is a firmer fish but very mild in flavor. I would totally come back here for a healthy meal anytime!

They have a bar upstairs that had a burger special, but we sat downstairs and had a nice view of the ocean. We were well taken care of by our waiter, Jacob. I ordered a mojito which was so good and refreshing, and ordered the crab cakes which were also very good. They had an amazing meyer lemon remoulade sauce and pickled seaweed on the side which was amazing. My friend and I split the rocket salad with beets and goat cheese, and it was good as well. Our whole group split a hula pie for dessert. Very yummy with extra chocolate sauce and macadamia nuts. I would definitely go here again!!

STEPH JUDGEMENT: Casual neighborhood tavern with good happy hour deals…read more We were walking by when we saw a sign advertising their "Nauti Hour", which was 1/2 off beers and apps from 3-6pm. They also have daily specials. The place was casual-nice, with an open plan that let in some nice afternoon breezes. The crowd skewed older and rather well-heeled, more wine than beer. We sat at the bar, where a friendly bartender took our order. We weren't terribly impressed with their draft beer selection--mostly very mainstream stuff. I got the Sam Adams summer ale and the hubby got a Truly seltzer. We shared a cheese quesadilla served with pico de gallo, sour cream, and guacamole--it was large and delish. It was a good place to get our evening going.

The chicken on the Caesar salad and on the tacos was delicious and perfectly seasoned. My fiancé said the fish and chips was really good and fresh, but the garlic parm tots didn't wow him.

We called to add a couple extra people, and then those people didn't show; they rolled with the punches. The table was set when we got there. Service throughout was friendly, prompt, over and above. Ambiance was great, in a very important way: There was nice music, but you could hear yourself think! Nobody had to repeat themselves a million times. Perfect sound level for a group our size. But the food was the absolute star of the show. Literally everything was perfect. For shareable appetizers, we got both the trio and the mezze plate. It was basically hummus flights, with pita triangles and multicolored carrots. All the hummus types were delicious. But a special shout-out to the truffle hummus--it was divine. It was very truffle-y, but it was also very light and creamy. Somehow that's not a combo I expected. Next, I'm already a falafel fan, but good *Lord* their falafel was unreal. Some kind of perfect crispiness on the outside and soft flakiness inside that I've never experienced before in falafel. I asked the server what he'd recommend, and he said beef kebab. I got the beef kebab. He was not wrong. The meat itself was sumptuous. And I just moved from Texas, where every other backyard BBQ has someone smoking their brisket for 18 hours. This was the kind of cook where even the marbling melts in your mouth. Even the carrots were good, I don't know what to tell ya. 10/10.
