Loved the food, but the waiter never came back with the check! He left for the day and I had to figure it out myself. It was an amazing turkey burger with a huge stack of seasoned fries and I give that 5 stars.

Still one of my favorite breakfast spots. Always easy to get a table and the service is always quick. This spot has one of the best views, you can see the beach while sitting on the patio.

Excellent location. I was 3 days post-op so could only have the broth from soup. Boyfriend ordered food. It looked and smelled amazing. Loved the outdoor seating option where I could see the ocean while enjoying the company, atmosphere, and soup. Service was acceptable, they could have stopped by a little more often.
