Food: Disastrous taste and portions

The food at this restaurant leaves a lot to be desired, apparently. According to several customers the food arrives undercooked and in some cases, it even made customers sick, a hard feat for a seafood restaurant that boasts of freshness. The fact that the portions are dwindling and yet the prices continue to soar, makes the eating experience even more disappointing. The variety in the menu also doesn't seem to mirror the actual offerings causing further dissatisfaction.

  • Great Quality

    Freshness straight from the tank ensures exceptional seafood dining experience.

  • Okay Taste

    Food consistently OK but not remarkable; decent but high-priced.

  • Bad Variety

    Menu choices not aligning with actual offerings, causing dissatisfaction.

Vibe: Bleak, uninspiring ambiance

The interior doesn't add any comfort to the already undesirable experience. It's stuck in a time warp, with basic, dated furnishings that detract from any chance of a stylish or modern feeling. The vibe certainly isn't doing this restaurant any favours.

  • Bad Ambiance

    Basic old furnishings detract from potential stylish or modern feeling.

Perks: Parking woes and sloppy service

The ordeal seems to start even before you enter the restaurant. Locating a park during peak hours is nightmarish due to the limited availability. Once you finally get in, expect extremely slow service, and be prepared to deal with rude, inattentive staff. It's not ideal for kids either, due to the numerous times customers had bad experiences with unsupervised children running around the place.

  • Okay For Groups

    Great for large groups, though experiences may vary with service quality.

  • Bad For Kids

    Unsupervised child running around and coughing negatively impacted experience.
