“Absolutely fantastic food. Pork chops were juicy and flavorful. Chicken piccata was perfectly cooked. The burger was JUICY. And the salmon also had great flavor. Deserts a hit all around. The best part was the service — friendly and nice. Very warm and welcoming. The place is a must after a long day at the beach.”

“I absolutely loved the food and service, and the atmosphere is quite nice. The food was flavorful, and our waiter was so fun and kind and attentive. I didn't catch his name, but he was great. He brought me his recommended choice of wine, which was delicious. The dessert: I was pleasantly surprised. A larger amount of dessert, which I did not expect (amazing surprise), and that was so yummy and beautifully plated. I look forward to returning again soon! Added to my favorites for Santa Cruz.”
