I have been telling everyone who will listen about THE ONLY fish sandwich worth eating on the island for years. Just do it! But this week I also ordered the Taco salad. Wow is all I can say! It’s HUGE and worth every penny! This is also the perfect gluten free option. No dressing necessary, use a little sour cream with their homemade salsa. It is amazing and shareable! Enjoy!Wish I had taken a picture but we jumped on it too fast!

Ordered for take out the Blackened Drum Nachos with Cilantro Lime sauce. They were very generous with the Drum and it was amazingly delicious. I would definitely order again, but I'd enjoy it even more dine-in. I knew that take out for nachos would be "an iffy choice" by the time I got the nachos home. But it was still very good. Make sure you order these nachos......you won't be disappointed.

Pains me to write this review. Our son loves the parrot, Rico. This place has gone downhill over the years. They used to allow dogs on the deck but not anymore, so we were turned away on our first night. Left our dog at the condo and came for lunch so our kid could see the parrot. They do not offer tap water. We were ordering all of our food for lunch and they only sell bottled water. I'm fighting off some dehydration and not interested in buying bottle after bottle of water. This isn't Europe lol.

I left 1 star because 0 isn't an option. Horrible customer service. Manager is an extremely rude old lady. Staff and managers definitely need customer service training. Why the restaurant hasn't acted on any of the reviews to correct these issues is beyond me.

Decent food is a good location on the bay. Quick service food came out quick. The first fish was dry and chewy, and the second fish was great and flaky. Cost too much for yhe ammoutof food given. 27 dollars for the plate.

This place was very cool. I won’t lie and say that the food was the best I’ve ever had, but it was certainly good. What really sets this place apart from others is the atmosphere and the service. It is a large establishment with a ton of cool photos and decorations to look at. They’ve also got a couple of large parrots in house which I thought was cool as my family is a bird family and we have parrots of our own. You absolutely couldn’t ask for more friendly or attentive servers, and to be fair… the food was better than average by more than a little bit. Unfortunately, there are so many great places to dine in the area that I just can’t call it a favorite when it comes to the food. Still, a great place to grab a meal, and the prices are fair.The only real negative that I can say about the place is that I ordered a michelada, and being a former resident of the valley… my expectations are high when it comes to michelada’s. Unfortunately, I’m pretty sure this one was just a generic Bloody Mary mix with beer added. Definitely would order a different drink. Other than that minor thing I can’t complain.
