We&#39;ve been twice now, my daughter loves the ice cream. The staff is really nice, especially Adam and the young lady at the counter. They&#39;re always polite and make the visit easy. A solid spot in Surf City.

Peanut butter cheesecake was fine, but the croissant bread pudding is the move. Perfect quick bite.

Had lunch here by the beach. The chips and salsa really stood out&mdash;the salsa tasted so fresh, like the tomatoes were just chopped. Appreciated that they had high chairs for families.

The garlic bagel sandwich with sausage, egg, and cheese is my new go-to. Bagels are super fresh, and the staff is so nice&mdash;they remembered my friend&#39;s name from last time! Perfect spot for a casual catch-up.

Loved the back deck. The ocean view is just perfect for a casual lunch. It&rsquo;s a very dog-friendly spot, which is nice. The whole place has that relaxed, beachy feel.

The salmon was just right, not too salty. And that ocean view... it&#39;s the kind of blue that just makes you stop for a second. Really quiet and nice.

Been coming here for years. It&#39;s got a cozy vibe, perfect for a quiet dinner or meeting a friend. Staff is always friendly, makes you feel welcome. Just a solid neighborhood spot.

Madeline was our server. She was on top of everything, really attentive without hovering. Got our orders right, drinks refilled fast. Just solid service.

The crab pot punch really got me. It&rsquo;s got this spicy kick that just hits right, especially with the salty air coming in. The whole place feels cozy, tucked right over the bridge. That drink alone makes it a spot.

Cozy spot, clean and quiet. Just grabbed a quick lunch here. The restrooms were surprisingly spotless, which is a plus. Good for a low-key meal when you don&#39;t want any fuss.

The toasted bun was a nice touch, crisp and fresh. The hot dog itself tasted good, but the real star for me were the thick-cut potato chips. You could tell they were made in-house, not too greasy. A solid, simple spot for a quick bite.

Got there at 5 and walked right in. By 5:30? Packed house. The food is just that good, so showing up early is the move. Everything was spotless, but the smell of cleaning products was a little heavy for my liking.

Don&#39;t just come for the sweets. Their breakfast burrito with avocado salsa was solid and filling. The real treat was the house bloody mary - perfectly spiced and a great match for the savory burrito.

The breakfast crew is always so nice and quick. They remember my coffee order now, which is a nice touch. Makes the whole morning routine feel a bit smoother.

Made the drive from downtown just for the fish dinners. The hush puppies were as good as everyone says! Perfect for a casual hang with friends.

Our go-to spot for a quick family lunch. Kids always finish their chicken tenders and fries. Service is fast, we&#39;re in and out in under an hour. A bit noisy, but that&#39;s expected.

The Alice Springs Chicken is always a solid choice. I tried the new combo with a steak this time. The chicken was pretty good, and the steak was decent, though the latter was a touch overdone for my liking.

Perfect for a break during the loop walk. Grabbed a flat white on their patio before heading to the beach. The coffee was solid, exactly what I needed. The outdoor seating is the real draw though &ndash; a nice, quiet spot to just sit for a bit.

Been ordering from here for years. What keeps me coming back? They actually call you if the restaurant is out of something you picked. Saves a lot of hassle.

The handmade tortillas here are fantastic. You can really taste the care in the food. My only small note is that the seating is a bit tight, but the friendly service more than makes up for it.

Sirloin was cooked medium. Juicy and tender, no complaints. Portion was fair for the price. Service was efficient, got in and out for a business lunch.

Been coming here for years. The chocolate peanut butter bread pudding is still the best thing on the menu. It&#39;s rich, but not too sweet. Just hits the spot every time.
