We had a 1:30 reservation on Sunday but we found they were putting the food away about 2:30 PM so would advise an earlier reservation to be able to take your time and have a leisurely brunch.

We had a group of 20 high school soccer players. Perfect venue on the beach with activities and fire pits. Waitress would bring pitchers of lemonade and leave on tables for each. Good selection of meals, fast kitchen. Great service and easy to work with.
