One of my secret date spots. Their cheese curds are from Wisconsin FR. Fish tacos and Mahi Mahi salad are my favorites on the menu. They have live music a couple of times a week. Bird sanctuary is a couple of minutes away for a walk after food. My most favorite summer time Cafe reminding me of Venice Beach Chicago version. Awesome date spot for a nice couple of hours and not rushing the patrons. It may be a good idea to make reservations just in case.

I stopped by on my motorcycle because i had seen on instagram that it was a nice vibe and I had told 4 other friends with motorcycles to stop by, as i got there this guy approached me and was completely racist and rude towards me and i simply did nothing but park and record my 360 gopro footage. I had a drink and texted my friends to not even show up anymore. I dont think i will ever be back again…. guerra_14b on tiktok if anyone would like to watch the footage of the guy being racist towards me.

Had a bad experience here and encountered racism by the owner. Came here with friends and the owner immediately (within 1 minute of parking) walked up to my friend who just parked told him he couldn’t park his motorcycle in the parking lot unless he was dining there. My friend said he was in fact dining there. Then he said “you can only park here if you’re dining here. Didn’t you read the sign? Did you take English in high school?” By the way, this was the business’s designated parking lot. Then the owner walked away. My friend is a visible minority who speaks English well. He told him, he was in fact dining in. My friend went in and had a drink and when he got back to his motorcycle, he got a ticket because the owner called the police to ticket it. Never supporting this business again. Rude and racist.

A fun casual place right on the beach to have a few cold ones and some nibblies. Very handy if you have some hungry kids. Near a pathway directly to the water for anyone with a cart. Live music sometimes too. Fun place and fun staff.

The food was good. However, they were stingy with the amount of alcohol in their drinks. The environment is nice, but would suggest to have bigger umbrellas on smaller tables for hotter days. Also, it felt like the waitress didn’t want to be there and we are the inconvenience.

For being a beach bar, it’s awesome. This place has an unbeatable location: right on the beach. Being from New Jersey, this place brings me back to days hanging out at the Jersey shore. The menu has all the right foods so you can have a cold beer, munch away, listen to live music, catch some rays, and pass away the day. My fav is the fried shrimp sandwich. They STUFF the sandwich with shrimp. No skimping. The shrimp is not over-breaded, and the aioli has just the right amount of kick to make you keep wanting another bite. The fries were crunchy outside and soft inside. And, our standing order to the waiter regarding the Dockamole was, ‘just keep it coming!’ It is soooo good.
Make no mistake, everything on the menu tastes great.
And it’s right in the middle of the city (but it doesn’t feel like it).
I love this place!

Parking: The restaurant is a walk from the street. Parking is along the marina, on the street, and is metered.

Make sure park right or the ex vet owner will hard stern word for you. Because he is an ex vet. Also do not speak English funny. He hates that.
