Good food and excellent service. 7 inch pizza (pepperoni with black olives, onions and jalapenos) with side salad. Could only eat 1/2 my pizza.

Great atmosphere. The area looks great and the patio looks fantastic to sit in during the summer. Food left something to be desired. Both me and my friend felt like our entrees were missing a little something that could've made it fantastic. Alas it fell short. Appetizers were pretty awesome. Our waitress was nice and attentive until the end where we waited almost 30 mins to pay our check.

This place is a joke. It’s just bad. Nobody enjoys working here…. I think the prices are reasonable…. For good food! Gross!

You are paying for the view, the clam chowder had no flavor and the pizza was mediocre.

The view here is amazing. They did a great job of putting windows along the whole way so there isn't a bad seat in the house when it comes to seeing the Puget Sound. However, the food was average, needed salt. The pizza was the best thing but it was all overpriced. Our server was friendly but disappeared for quite a while. I got the portobello pizza and it had what felt like 1/2 a raw onion on it. The view would be worth coming back but the food definitely isn't.

Ordered fried calamari, 7” Luau pizza with side of Caesar salad. Food was tasty, Caesar dressing was very good. Waiter was great, he gave us recommendations and they ended up being a great choice. Want to go back when it is nice out and enjoy the patio. Very clean inside the restaurant.

I love this place. They always have good seafood and the pizza is good too. Negatives = short on the vegetarian/vegan options but they did allow us to modify menu items to make a vegan version which was very nice of them, not everyone will do this ❤️
