Service was quick and attentive. Staff were friendly without being overbearing. Made a business lunch here efficient and pleasant.

The carbonara portion was huge, I couldn&#39;t finish it. Took half home. The baguette with brie and honey was also a good size for the price. You definitely get a lot for your money here.

Been coming here for years, and the cocktails are always on point. Never too sweet, just right. The Frenchie is my go-to, but that banana daiquiri last week? Spot on. They keep the quality consistent, which is why I&#39;m back.

Service was efficient. Jay was particularly attentive, our order arrived quickly and well-presented. Good for a business lunch when you&#39;re on a tight schedule.

The mango sake was a sweet, refreshing pick. I liked that they had a few Japanese options alongside the usual IPAs. The drink menu had a decent variety to choose from.

Great spot right on the sand. Had a late lunch here, the view was so relaxing. Food took a little while but honestly, didn&#39;t mind just watching the waves. Perfect for a quiet break.

Great service for our team dinner. They found us a table with a nice view. The wine list had some good local options to pair with the meal.

Friendly staff, and the DJ later on was a nice touch. I like that they didn&#39;t have the music too loud at first, you could still talk. Good spot to unwind with that view.

The outdoor seating is lovely, with the sound of the ocean. It&#39;s a very relaxing spot for a meal, though it can get a bit warm in the afternoon sun.

The build-your-own burger was fun. Got blue cheese, caramelized onions, mushrooms, and jalape&ntilde;os. The house sauce really pulled it together. Bun was nicely toasted, not soggy at all.

Grilled fish and crispy pata were solid. You pick your own seafood from the tank, which is cool. Portions are big for what you pay.

The WiFi here is solid, no drops while I was working for a couple hours. Comfy chairs too. But the coffee was a bit pricey for the small cup they give you.

The souvlaki was really good, the meat was tender and the veggies had nice seasoning. My kids actually ate all the onions, which never happens! The place itself felt a bit cramped though, tables are pretty close together.

The staff here are so warm and genuine. They remembered my name from a previous visit and asked about my dietary preferences. It felt like visiting family friends, not just a restaurant. That personal touch really makes a difference.

Stopped by for a late lunch. The stuffed squid was really tender, and the mango prawns had a nice sweet kick. Menu&#39;s got a lot of local seafood stuff, which is cool.

The ribeye here is massive for what you pay. Cooked just right, juicy and tender. Couldn&#39;t finish it all, took half home. Solid choice if you&#39;re hungry.

The fried chicken basil bowl is the one. The chicken&#39;s crispy, the basil&#39;s fresh, and that sauce ties it all together. Had it twice this week. The dark chocolate tart is a solid follow-up, not too sweet.

The burger was tasty, but the seats were a bit too high for the tables. I had to keep adjusting to get comfortable. The owner from Valencia was very friendly though.

The sinigang na hipon is done right! It&#39;s got that perfect sour kick and the veggies were super fresh. The pork sisig was solid too, came with a raw egg on top just like it should.

Solid happy hour deal. BOGO cocktails 5-7pm. The frozen mango daiquiri was super refreshing.

The adobo with foie gras was interesting. But honestly, for the price, the portion was pretty small. I left still feeling a bit hungry.

Creamy Chicken Mushroom was the star for me. Really liked the texture of the mushrooms and the sauce wasn&#39;t too heavy. Calamari was fresh, but the chicken dish just stood out more. Solid meal.

The breakfast sandwich here is a standout. The bread is exceptional, really well-toasted and holds up to the fillings without getting soggy. Everything inside is packed with flavor, especially the sausage patty. It&#39;s a simple thing done right.

The credit card fee is a bit of a bummer, but it&#39;s convenient. The food was good, atmosphere cheerful. Had a nice Pinot Noir with the steak, it worked well. Solid spot.
