Thanks for opening despite the weather! We arrived during a massive downpour on our way to lodging near the KSC. The restaurant was definitely an unexpected gem, and we enjoyed everything we ate that night.
Our service was pretty prompt, and we enjoyed the tiki atmosphere. Our party ordered the chowder, the kalua pork platter, the loco moco, the salmon, and the catch of the day (swordfish that night). All of it was delicious to a very high level. We thought all of the seafood was plentiful and fresh, with the Hawaiian dishes being very unique (the beef quality in the loco moco and the flavor of the pork both very impressed us). Even the sides were outstanding. We definitely recommend to anyone passing by the area.

If I’m a honest local that wants to see this place thrive…… Place is amazing with location & bands they hire! Couldn’t ask for better ambiance! The drinks are hit or miss. Beer is cold. Mixed drinks … well that depends on who makes them. Lastly. The food is mediocre at best. I don’t know what happened… it was good when they opened and for a year or so after… now, they bring the soup cold to the table and use chicken thighs for all chicken dishes. I want to support this local establishment, but they need to get more consistent & have higher quality food.

Make a reservation! We waited 40 minutes and still couldn't get someone to put our names on a list. At first some guy said "oh yeah, I'll get a table cleared and be right back", then never reappeared or put our name on the list. Next lady said it would be another 40 so we left.
The tacos were very disappointing, my wife took one bite & spit it out - the steak in the tacos had that clay smell to it like it was bad before they tried to cook it .

Great ambiance however, not as memorable taste in food. We cane here to have lunch with family after picking them up from Port Canaveral after their cruise and thought it would be a great spot. It was so so but not as bad. I just expected more I guess since the price point of their food was a bit up there. There's outdoor and indoor seating. Ample parking spots and clean restroom. A little tucked in place and not easily visible driving from the street.

My Boyfriend & I booked an AirBNB for the night just as a quick get away. We stopped in to grab a quick bite before we could check in. Sarah was our Bartender/Server. She was sweet and really seemed like she knew what she was suggesting. She suggested a couple appetizers the fish dip& Hawaiian sautee garlic shrimp both were amazing. I like to leave reviews when I feel they are warranted. Thank you for a wonderful start to our little getaway.

We went for girl's day on Sunday. Dakota was our server and he was absolutely exceptional! The food was amazing! Thank you for a wonderful experience. I had the burger with homemade onion bacon jam, delicious! The Key lime pie was the best I ever had!
Parking: There is plenty of parking on both sides of the restaurant.

Wonderful atmosphere and excellent food with friendly, welcoming service! Our server, Jasmine, was warm and smiling! She knew the menu and made great recommendations, in particular the Hawaiian Garlic Shrimp, and described the vegetables to a tee. We had the catch of the day, swordfish, with jasmine rice/veggies and salmon. Both were perfectly cooked and very flavorful.
It was a bit of a chilly evening so the tiki torches and fire warmers were lit and keeping it comfortable. It also added to the atmosphere. We sat near enough to the canal to see a couple of boats pass by.
Definitely worth coming OTB (over the bridge) from beachside or hitting up before a cruise!
Parking: Google maps was not correct but got close enough to find parking and the rear entrance.
