Review summary
AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Coastal Kitchen delights with "excellent food" and "friendly, professional servers." Known for its "outstanding crab cakes" and "fantastic ambiance," it's a favorite for many. While some find it "too noisy," the consistent quality of dishes like the "seared ahi salad" and "Parker House rolls" keeps guests returning for more.
