Vibe: Charming atmosphere with whispers of intimacy

The ambiance strikes a peaceful chord, with the elegant decor and ocean views creating a setting straight out of a romantic film. It's cozy enough for dates, but on quieter days, the buzz takes a little vacation, leaving diners in a somewhat muted vibe.

  • Great Comfort

  • Okay Buzz

    Nice and modern interior, though ambiance sometimes lacks energy.

Perks: Speedy service gets lost in the shuffle

While the free and ample parking is a treat, the service here often takes its sweet time, resembling molasses on a cold day. Long waits for a table with groups and intermittent rude staff can put a damper on one's dining experience.

  • Great Outdoor

    Cozy patio seating with heaters provides perfect dining comfort.
