Reviews

“Lovely setting on beachfront at sunset, excellent service by Rosie and all 4 of us loved our meals. Reasonable prices and one of a few restaurants to accept credit cards (except for happy hour).”

Dianne Nichols

“Brunch was excellent! I had the Capitán omelet. It had delicious shrimp, spinach, and a parsley cream sauce. The mimosas were cold and tasty. I definitely plan to return and return and return!”

Kathryn Ruthenbeck

“We went to Karen’s place today for lunch. The staff is amazing. They anticipated everything. The food was amazing as well. We had the coconut shrimp and the fish tacos. The fish and shrimp were fresh and cooked perfectly.”

KenChuckie Donaldson

“This is a favorite place for many and for good reason. The food is very good with many options. Prices are reasonable and the location is beachfront. At times there is live music. Service is among the friendliest in town. You can't go wrong with a visit here.”
