I love the vibe in this restaurant! Very surfer chic. I ended up coming here two days in a row for brunch. I had the breakfast sandwich and the breakfast burrito. Both was solid. I would be interested in coming back to check out their dinner or happy hour menu

Loved the happy hour spritzes and Brussels sprouts. A wide variety of dinner options. We all had different entrees and everyone was very happy with their choice. Server was friendly and attentive, atmosphere was open and comfortable

We had such a wonderful experience thanks to our server, Jeff! Honestly, we thought he might be the owner because of how professional, kind, and knowledgeable he was. He made us feel so well taken care of the entire time. The food was very good, but Jeff really made the experience stand out. The restaurant is lucky to have him!
