Quality of the food went from 5 star ⭐️ to 3 ⭐️ and the servings are very small. It’s about 3/4 of what we normally used to get.This is not my favorite fish restaurant Anymore!! Also customer service are still A!

Lunch tacos are flavorful. The menu is automated for your personal selection.
I tried one each of three taco choices. Avoiding breaded and fried food, the Cajun Shrimp and Cajun Fish tacos were very good and filling. The grilled chicken was taken to-go because the tacos are nicely filled, not street tacos.
Hara hachi bu.
The shrimp and avocado salad looked good although they use a substantial amount of dressing.

AXEL was great! Super fast and eager/willing to help. My wife was being a ‘lil needy on the kiosk and he wasn’t phased in the least bit…he even offered us a complimentary drink when I forgot to order it and went back to order it separately and pay. He said “don’t worry about it,” and handed me a cup…it was a small gesture that spoke volumes about his customer service ethic! THANK YOU!
