We will offer some of our most popular dishes from the two restaurants as well as our own new menu items. Our food is tropical, Caribbean and South Pacific inspired to go along with our amazing Tiki - Bar. We look forward to having you!

    People were very friendly and the food was good but I expected more from this newly-updated venue from an ambience perspective. The turquoise theme felt more like a kids playroom rather than the nautical theme that they seemed to be going for. And given the high prices, the value seemed overstated.

    The food was excellent. Prices were high- ala cart- think high end steak house. Had to ask for bread and the water to be refilled a few times. Ambiance does not align with the food quality and prices but overall was very satisfied with the food!

    We had the tuna pizza for an appetizer and it was out of this world. The entrees burger and Mahi Mahi were fantastic. Biggest burger I have ever seen. The service was spectacular. Our server was on top of everything as well as the manager recommended

    We had a great meal, but more importantly, the server of our lunch was so kind and helpful, as we asked about the town and asked her for recommendations. She came back with a handwritten note and she was very attentive our our table. Kindness and smiles matter. We enjoyed our lunch and will be back.
