Most incredible food. All three of us were extremely pleased and commended the chef and sous chef who was also our waiter! the only thing keeping it from A+ across the board was the noisy drainage grates folks drive over to enter the entrance/street as we were seated closest to it and it was absurdly noisy and the city should fix it. You jumped from the noice almost every time someone drove in.

I had the fish and chips and they are amazing. Fries were crisp and hot and the fish is ono instead of the typical cod and it’s moist and flavorful. The batter is not greasy with just the right amount of mild crunch. So good . . .

The first night here when we ordered poké had us back for 2 more dinners in the span of 8 nights. I’ve already written one review from one of those times. Again, it was a totally pleasant evening with delicious drinks, food, service and the setting can’t be beat. An all around bravo for this restaurant!
