    Our experience with this restaurant was great. Our service was excellent (James) and would recommend him. The food was over the top fantastic. The venue is open and friendly. We had fun and were not rushed. The dessert was delicious! Thank you!

    We came in for lunch with a party of 9 and were seated without a wait. Our server was friendly and took our drink orders shortly after we were seated. Everyone enjoyed their entrees and sides - sand dabs, shrimp tacos, clam chowder, shrimp salad, salmon salad, sweet potato fries, pineapple slaw were all wonderful! We all appreciated the separate checks and we will be back to try other entrees on the menu!

    First time eating here.. After living in Hawaii & Alaska, I consider myself to be a fish “snob.” However, the seafood here did not disappoint! If I lived in in SLO, I’d be eating here frequently! Great service too! Highly recommended!

    The resturant is very nice and has a great ambiance. The waiter was fine the food was also fine. Drinks from the bar should come out quicker. They need to work on the calamari. The oysters were good and present very nice.

    Took my visiting family here for an early dinner. Ambiance was great and the appetizers (calamari, crab cakes, and those biscuits!) were on point. Cocktails were solid too. Unfortunately, all the fish dishes came out overcooked, and the rice sides were dry and flavorless. Service was slow—took 15-20 mins just to be greeted and check-ins were rare. Great apps and drinks, but everything else was just mediocre at best.
