What a great spot for a sunset meal! Beautiful setting up high with views over the ocean. We loved the food -- tried the mushroom flatbread, the tempura shrimp and their chopped salad, all of which were delicious! Tried two different cocktails and liked both but the winner for me was the Green Harvest. There was a guy playing music who was multitalented (guitar, flute, harmonica!) and a great vibe overall. Highly recommend!

Simply delicious. I love the compact menu. Great vegan options that are delicious for meat eaters too. Chocolate mousse is heavenly (you’ll never guess the main ingredient!) highly recommended for a tasty meal in a serene setting.
