This restaurant is charming, and our server was incredibly kind and attentive. I absolutely loved the ambiance; it was very cozy on a cool summer evening. The food was decent overall. My burger was delicious, and the fried appetizers were good, though a bit overpriced. However, the baked seafood dish with rice and cream sauce was a disappointment—the sauce tasted far too much like warm mayonnaise for my liking. Given the reviews I’ve come across, I really hope they can improve the quality of their food a bit. It seems like they have the potential to be a real gem in Cambria!

My experience at this restaurant was quite frustrating overall. However, I have to say that the food is mostly very good. I have mixed feelings about the place. To begin with, they offer both a lunch and dinner menu. I found it almost impossible for a family of four to enjoy a meal for under $100 at dinner, even with two kids' meals. The only straightforward option on the menu is a $20 burger, while my wife chose the Asian chicken salad, which looked a bit underwhelming. I ordered the seafood pasta, and it was very good and had a fresh taste. We also tried the crab cakes, which were about the size of small burgers and cost $20 for the pair. Those were genuinely delicious. The kids' chicken tenders were fine—nothing extraordinary, but also nothing wrong with them. The service was decent; it felt a little rushed and possibly understaffed. Overall, it wasn't bad, just not exceptional. One last thing to note is that they only accept Visa and Mastercard, no Discover. In summary, the experience felt a bit overpriced, although I understand the limited options due to supply and demand.

Friday is Mexican specials. Had carnitas enchiladas and they were really good. Good selection of local beer. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5
