Fish

Grilled Wild Salmon

$28.90

Wild salmon with asparagus and a choice of mashed or roasted potatoes.

“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.”

Fish & Chips

$20.90

Beer-battered red snapper served with fries and homemade coleslaw.

“A delightful little spot with a unique atmosphere that is at once cozy and homey, and reminiscent of a classic diner. I ordered a cup of Clam Chowder and an order of Fish and Chips. With the side of toast, I probably could have been full on the chowder alone, but I'm glad I got to try the fish. Perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. The cole slaw was creamy and sweet, very fresh. This is definitely a place I hope to come back to.”

Kids Fish & Chips

$12.00

Fried fish served with chips in a kids' plate.

“My son and I shared 2 dishes, fettuccine alfredo and fish and chip, both cooked perfectly. Both plates are empty shortly 😀 we also like the complimentary potato appetizer, crispy and tasty, especially with their sauce. Would want to order that next time.”
