Staying at hotel. Came twice. Awesome service. Cool place. My burger was overcooked (ordered med was well) and roll bit stale. I ate it but that was my thoughts on it. Calamari was great. Chicken sliders were good. I'd return but prob skip burger but that's just me. Service was a 10. Atmosphere a 10.

This was a great spot for lunch. When we got here we were sat immediately. We chose to sit outside and the atmosphere was good. The drinks were great the food was tasty. We will definitely come back. The Lion Lemonade was very good!
December 2024
The poke dish was nice, but our other two dishes were poorly seasoned - both way too salty. Cauliflower was pretty disappointing. Their tomatoes in particular were strangely over salted. I had a drink which also just didn't seem balanced.
