Always a good meal and relaxing atmosphere. Thanks Larry!

Freshest fish i’ve ever had on the island!

first time here, not overly impressed. eggplant was both chewy with an overpowering flavor of the frying pan. sauce was watery but had great flavor.

place was hopping, short staffed though. our waitress was awesome even though she was stressed out.

almost double the price of Causeway I expected double the quality as well
