What a great find! I had the salmon salad and it was easily the best cooked salmon ever! Cute industrial themed restaurant in the plaza. Excellent service and a lovely manager was on duty. I left my jacket by mistake. When I realized it the next day, I left a voicemail and an email asking if it had been turned in. Luckily they had it and I picked it up the next day! Nice restaurant, nice people.

Came here while visiting a friend that lives here. She recommended this place to us and it didn't disappoint! The drinks were good! I ordered the b**** slap and it was delicious. I also ordered a smash burger and it didn't disappoint. It was 2 patties so it wasn't completely smashed. Can't complain about the food choices because they had a variety of food. Service was good and fast even though it was packed. Our server was Angel. Ambiance was nice too because they had music but it wasn't too loud.

The food was great- wings were a little salty, but still cooked perfectly crispy. We devoured the tots and my son enjoyed his sandwich. It's not five stars because although it wasn't busy...service was utterly slow. Like... almost unbearably slow. We almost left after we got our waters because we waited forever until our waitress came along. It took awhile to get our food and even longer to pay the bill. I do not recommend coming if you're in a time crunch.

Besides the service from the waiter, my fish tacos were so delicious. I wish I had gotten a picture but it was so good it was gone quick. My friend did get the salmon and I got a picture of hers. She recommends this place as well...just a needed a little bit better waiter.

The burger was excellent although I prefer that the cheese is melted on my patty. The restaurant is quite large and has a nice outdo seating area. The bar area is nice and roomy and they have space for catering events. The service was fast and my waiter was very polite. He didn't make me feel rushed and had some great suggestions when I asked him about a few of their menu items. The key lime pie was excellent with the exception of the chocolate syrup they put on the plate. It went well with the strawberry but not the pie. They should strongly consider a key lime sauce or a strawberry sauce. I'm not a chocolate hater at all. It's my favorite, but the two together were not good at all. Even with that, they still deserve 5 stars!
