Everything was great, drinks were delicious, the cookie skillet was delish. Only thing was there was a bonkers amount of cabbage on the fish tacos my friend and I had. The fish and toppings were delicious but there was just a crazy amount of cabbage on there! Our server Lauren was so sweet and attentive, she took great care of us and was fast and efficient when we asked for anything. We really appreciated her! Food took a decent amount of time but it was worth the wait plus it was pretty busy, and drinks took no time at all, we really enjoyed our time :) thank you Lauren!!

We keep coming back!!! Kinda wish it was a tad quieter. However, it sits alongside the train station low, flying airplanes and boats next to you. It’s quite busy it’s worth stopping in. The food is perfect and the staff is excellent.
