Ambiance is a plus, and next to Port. Food is good. Waitress got 1 order wrong and my husband just kept it and ordered another to avoid Drama. Had to ask for refill on drink. Bathroom are clean.

This little known, newer place didn't pop up when we made our itinerary on Chat GPT but happened upon it on accident, AND I'm glad we did!!! Right on the marina with a view of boats. The food was delicious! We shared the Primavera Scramble, Caprese Eggs Benedict, and a Mexican Pancake (thin with caramel and whipcream). Our serve Humberto was jolly, funny, attentive, and kind! The rest of the staff was lovely as well. Highly recommend!!!
Came back again 4 months later and the food and service did not disappoint (asked for Humberto again).

I quite seriously cannot stand giving a negative review. However, my husband and I were in town for our 38th wedding anniversary, and my birthday. We saw that this restaurant had a 4.6 rating and decided to try it for a celebratory dinner. We made reservations for 7 o’clock, on a Saturday night, however, when we arrived, the place was empty, and the reservations were completely unnecessary. We really wanted to like this restaurant, but it turned out to be extremely disappointing.
The decor was great! Our server, Sarah, was very friendly, genuine, and told us that she was new and really couldn’t comment too much on her favorites due to mot working there for long. My husband ordered the ribeye and shrimp, and I ordered chicken piccata. We also ordered crabcakes for an appetizer. We eat out regularly, and don’t mind paying for a good meal. However, the food here, although it had great ingredients, was very poorly executed. The crab cakes were soggy, not crispy. The green beans for both of our dinners were barely warm and almost raw. We ordered a side of sautéed mushrooms to go with our dinner, and again, they were nearly raw just in a broth, and not sautéed at all. My husband‘s ribeye was thin and flavorless. The chicken breast in my chicken piccata, was maybe 3 to 4 ounces of very thin ( 1/4”) and dry chicken breast. The plate was about 3/4 covered with linguine pasta with undercooked green beans on top and warmish broth below.
I sincerely hate giving reviews like this, but this was such a disappointment that I felt it was necessary to warn others who are fooled by the 4.6 star rating. This is definitely not a 4.6. I would give it a 2 at most. It has such potential, but they really need an actual chef that can plan a menu and actually execute well cooked food. Additionally, they say that they are open until 9:00 pm, but they went around and turned the open signs off at about 8:20, and turned away a couple who wandered into the door at 8:30 telling them that they should go and visit their sister restaurant, Portola, a few blocks down. I looked at Portola, and it gets less than a 4.0 on Google.
It grieves me to give this review, but in all honesty I just can’t let someone else go here without saying something to warn you first. Our bill came to over $150 plus a tip, which we really don’t mind if it is worth it. We would have been better off flushing $150 down the toilet. If you read through the reviews, which we should have done beforehand, even their own child gives them a low review and states that his/her parents don’t listen to reviews and refuse to step up their game based on feedback. When even your own child does that, it says a lot about how much you care about your business. My advice would be to read through all of the reviews before going here and don’t be fooled by the 4.6 star overall. My husband and I both agree that this was such a waste of our money and the memory of our 38th wedding anniversary.

I give service a 4 star is because they forgot part of my order. That being said we were an extremely large group seperate orders so it was understandable lots of confusion. for a normal visit I'm sure the service is excellent. We tipped well.

Food was absolutely delicious! Our server Humberto was amazing from beginning to end. Started off with their mezcal pinapple margarita, it was the perfect amount of spicy and sweet♡ We ordered the tacos de papa and the nachos. Im vegeterian and when we asked about the refried beans being cooked in lard, Humberto offered black beans instead and it was the perfect switch! Would definitely be back again!!
