    Hostess Lauren was outstanding. Extremely busy night but she was calm, professional and charming. She deserves a raise…

    Excellent experience, food & drinks! My seared scallops were done perfectly! They even brought my friend and I ( who have shared and celebrated our birthday for 68 years!) a lovely slice of key lime pie—we had an excellent server!

    Casual but trendy with ambiance. Efficient and friendly service. Maybe not San Francisco, Half Moon Bay or Monterey type seafood but acceptable for a local establishment. We will be a repeat customer and will refer friends to this location.

    The food was excellent. However, it took about an hour or longer to get our food. They were overcrowded and overbooked. I would not go back on a weekend night, only during the week. Lunch would probably be better.
