"The dinner menu currently features seasonal specials, which was a nice touch, and there’s also a more casual menu with burgers and fries; just a warning, the burgers are enormous! We started with appetizers: Tempura Mushrooms, Ahi Poke, and Seared Ahi. All three dishes were excellent, but we unanimously agreed the Poke was the highlight. It was incredibly fresh, and the dipping sauces added the perfect amount of spice, complemented by the sides of rice, seaweed, and pickled onions. The mushrooms were light and tasty—the Mermaid sauce was delicious but a bit heavy for them, while the honey mustard was just right. The seared tuna was perfectly cooked and came with the same sides as the Poke.
For our main courses, we ordered the Pasta Romanesco with prawns and rockfish, Local Rockfish, and Prawns Satay. The pasta was hefty with penne, but I found it too soft and lacking in seasoning. The sauce was fantastic, the fish was well-prepared, and the bright pesto on top paired wonderfully with the dish, along with the spinach. The Satay was good, and the Rockfish dish offered a unique experience; although the pickled butter was a bit overpowering, the veggies served alongside were perfect, though the mashed potatoes underneath created a lack of texture.
For dessert, we shared chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting, carrot cake, and pecan pie (which came in a large tart crust). All were delicious, but the pecan pie was the star of the show. It featured homemade vanilla ice cream and small, perfect meringue dollops, and both the crust and filling were superb. I would happily return just for that Poke anytime!
The atmosphere was great, the bathrooms were clean, and although the parking lot is small, it is accessible. While it’s a bit pricey for an everyday place, it’s perfect for a nice night out or a date/celebration like ours. We took home a lot of food and thoroughly enjoyed our entire experience. We definitely plan to return!"
