"Great food, great service and great prices what more do you need?"
Eli Olsen
"Generally, good food, the fish was overcooked, the meat was fantastic, chicken average at best. Also, the service was spotty, one of the waiters was really good, and another one seemed to be dismissive, and never brought us menus. Good location."
Ovidiu Marinescu
"The fish didn't taste good. We were two people using our laptops over lunch, and the owner was rude and turned off the wifi without warning or reason, fully knowing it would interrupt our work. Never again"
