Brian StraussOctober 17, 2017I really liked this place. Great fresh seafood selections in a dynamite setting out there on pier. Ask for a table next to the window to watch all of the surfing and sailing action.
Abood AbussaudFebruary 12, 2015Great service, the location is breathtaking.. Food is really tasty.. I recommend the salmon croquette, grilled salmon, and the fried calamari as an appetizer.. Prices are fair in my opinion 👍
Linda PerryAugust 1, 2012Best food we had on this trip!!! Amazing food & service! Zack & Hanna stayed open late to accommodate my party of 20, and I can't thank them enough.
Jack EnsorOctober 18, 2013Local Salmon is the best I have ever had. (and I lived in Alaska for 3 years!) Didn't care for the fish and chips, small portion and too much breading.
Start off with the Firecracker prawns as appetizer, and follow up it with the sea bass special as your entre. I order it every time I'm here!!
Chloe WohlersApril 12, 2016The cippino (sorry if u spelt it wrong😂) is a fair price but.....amazingly tasty. 😋😋😋😋- Get the calamari appetizer and ask them to put the firecracker sauce on it. Trust me you will thank me later
Bkwm JDecember 28, 2011Amazing service! We came 5 min b4 closing, they still welcomed us & provided great services! Waitress was so nice, friendly & attentive! ^_^
New York PRMay 16, 2014The service is great. The ahi tuna special I had was not very fresh but had a good dressing. My boyfriends crab cake was served over green beans which seemed odd, would be better over asparagus
- Steven SchislerJuly 27, 2021THE WORST OVERPRICED MEALS EVER! Chopino, seafood in an unseasoned marinara.Seafood pasta, tasteless and inedible. I never return food, we threw both plates out. No chefl, just a bunch of fry cooks.
- Brigette SchislerJuly 27, 2021I GOT SICK EATING HERE!! My husband and I LOVE Santa Cruz, we love it. I will never eat here again.THE WORST PREPARED FOOD EVER..AT THOSE PRICES!!! Do not waste your valuable vacation time here!!!
- Firecracker prawns are slightly sweet and then kick in with the spicy.
Laetitia Dos SantosMay 23, 2018We will never go to that place again. We were greeted by the most rude waitress. She was so condescending it ruined our evening.
Shai KiriatiJuly 12, 2012So apparently, the short line was because it is the most expensive place around- and for absolutely no reason. Save time and money, and stay away
Or-Tal KiriatiJuly 12, 2012Don't waste your time. Ridiculous portion crazy prices. People who stay will mostly do it because they have wasted te on waiting.
Jillian OhmAugust 6, 2011Slow service, hair in the clam chowder but the strawberry lemonade is hella good
Оксана ТелегинаDecember 30, 2017Неплохой ресторан, но кулинарных изысков вы здесь не найдёте , просто перекусить

"Clam chowder in a bread bowl is stellar! Rich, creamy, infused with clam flavor, with perfectly cooked chunks of clam in a freshly-baked sourdough bowl. YUM!"
