The food we were served was not fresh especially the fish. The food was overpriced and we didn’t get value for what we paid. The hype is absolutely unnecessary for the quality on offer

1st time here. Good location, nice vibe. We had issues with our food orders (one overly salty, the other overly done) but both our server (Jon) and the kitchen jumped all over it to make it right, which was greatly appreciated. The substitute food was good and was it not for the issues encountered at first, I’d give this a 4-star. We’ll come back.

Excellent food and great ambience. Service was a little on the slow side particularly since it was not busy. However, we were just hanging out, so it wasn't really an issue. Highly recommended.
