I’m not one for writing reviews especially bad reviews but this was quite the experience. Got lunch here today. When we first walked in we thought it looked like it used to be a really nice pizza place. You have to order before you sit down, the person at the register was really hard to understand. We went to sit down at a booth and the whole booth had not been cleaned, there was food all over the seats, we tried to find a clean seat and had to settle for one with food still, unsanitary. It should be cleaned in between each customer.

Not bad at all really. Had the fish burger and it was pretty good. Just a relaxed little place to grab a bit to eat. Prices are comparable to the rest of the places around the area

The people that work here are really nice and we're working so hard to do a good job. They were very confused and unorganized about the orders and where they are supposed to go. We had a party of 3 and our food all came at different times. The shrimp and pasta wasn't very flavorful, the grilled cheese with buffalo chicken was 2 slices of bread, a couple slices of unmelted cheese and a chicken tender tossed in the middle. It actually tasted good though. This place has a lot of potential and I would go back!!

Crab is the only reason patronize this establishment. The king crab legs are delectable. Other items? the fries are greasy and limp, the breading on the halibut is wimpy, tasteless, and slides off the fish, finally, the fish itself is standard issue frozen halibut.
