Several people in our group had the tuna steak with wasabi potatoes and really enjoyed that meal but honestly everything we had was good.

Service is always good, some meals better than others but we never leave hungry or disappointed! They have an extensive menu and we started with the boneless chicken bites and Jalapeño cheese skewers, both of which are amazing every time we visit. For dinner we branched out this time and got snow crab legs, salads, a chicken sandwich, and a lobster pasta which came with an entire lobster! Keeping in mind it IS bar food, but everything was good and no one walked away hungry. Cocktails were also fantastic. There is a reason we always stop in and it's because they are consistent with great service! Kudos

Chicken is usually not seasoned, marinated, or given any kind of flavor - salt and pepper go a long way! And it's cooked to death. Boneless tenderloins take about two-five mins to cook, let rest and VOILA they're still juicy. Hamburgers don't need to be cooked to death either - tho they prob don't take much time either cuz these burgers are pretty slim. I just think they need to do better. They get a good amount of business everyday so there may be no real incentive to try harder. But it would be nice to have a decent grilled chicken sandwich. Also not thrilled that the chicken sandwich is just two tenderloins and not a filet. I think that is just lazy.

The inside is nothing crazy but there are a decent amount of seating options. The menu has a variety of burgers, sandwiches, and salads along with custard options. The waitress was very nice and let me order off the kids menu. I ordered the kids chicken tenders which was the perfect size for me! It consisted of two chicken tenders and a side as well as a drink. I got the hwy sauce and I enjoyed it! It had good flavor! The chicken tenders were very crispy. A downside was my friends ordered tomato as one of their items on their burger but the waitress didn't tell us they were out of tomatoes. My meal totaled $6.50. If you want an easy nicely priced meal this is an option!

Dishes from seafood salad, ramen, sashimi & rolls were on point - very unexpected for small beach town. Young adults loved loved the tuna.
