    Staff was very nice at the bar. We didn't get any food so I can't comment on that but the drinks were yummy. Lots of great outdoor seating overlooking the water. Would come back for the "coastal" ambiance. I loved that they had TouchTunes machine.

    Tucked away with a beautiful view, good food is AND strong drinks?! Sign me up! Stopped in for lunch and was not disappointed. We order a bowl of she crab soup (9/10, wish there was a bit more crab), the lunch special grilled chicken caesar wrap (10/10, & it's served with fries), the longboard club sandwich (9/10, & served with soup) and last but not least, the blue raspberry cosmo, which was strong and delicious (10/10!) Service was decent even though things started to pick up after being there for a few minutes. I'd definitely come back again and sit outside next time to take in more of the view.

    Such a cute spot to get food and drinks! I had been eyeing this place for so long and finally got to try it. We went around sunset time and sat outside. The view by the water was so relaxing and cute. We ordered a blue raspberry cosmo (10/10, was strong but still good), Crab mac and cheese appetizer (10/10), Lava burger (7/10, a little bland), and the Fried fish tacos with rice and beans and mac salad (8/10, lacked in flavor a little but was still decent). Total bill was $70. Overall, we enjoyed our food and definitely are gonna return to try some other items and their lunch/happy hour. Our waitress was really nice also. My overall rate of experience : 7.5/10
