Stopped by for lunch today. The staff was outstanding in their efforts to comply with CDC and state guidelines. Everyone was masked properly and constantly cleaning. They had every other table "closed" and there were even dividers. The food was good too. My orange crush and waffle fries were exceptional and very reasonable prices. Will be back.

I was looking for a sit down breakfast place on the boardwalk and found this gold gem. I ordered the French toast platter and breakfast sandwich on a croissant and it was delicious!

A wonderful surprise for me on the board walk where you get the best flavourful foods possible. Man the drinks are generous and well made complete amalgamation with the beautiful sound and sight of the sea. But the cherry on the cake is the sweet and pleasant service offered by the wonderful staff especially by Andrea A, who served me and family and the wonderful owner of the place. They made me feal never to leave the place. But we did in some time as they have a line of people already waiting for a spot. Must go place when visiting the board walk to relax, have wonderful cocktail and enjoy the food and service.

The second time in a week we ate here, once for lunch and once for dinner and had a delicious meal and great service on both occasions. The crab cakes were gorgeous and were accompanied by corn bread (yum) and garlic red skin potato mash. Chicken tenders were huge and we took home a couple as teenager couldn’t finish. Also had fish and chips and burger and everybody loved their meals. Highly recommend

Double sided entrance whether it's from the boardwalk or the parking lot. The place is Fully decorated and great quotes every direction you look. Keep an eye out, they're hilarious and every drinkers' life motto. Drinks pack a punch and made with love as the bartenders are super friendly. Food is pretty flavorful and so filling - so many items and such a wide variety on the menu regardless of what you're feeling for. Breakfast, Brunch, lunch, dinner - they got it all and if not they'll customize whatever order. The waffle fries were the perfect compliment to any dish.

Probably one of the most popular places on the boardwalk! Usually a good crowd here throughout the day. Fortunately, there's always a spot when we go. Service is fast and good. Great portion sizes too. Many tasty drinks to choose from. I got the hurricane. Not as strong as advertised but still very good. My burger was straight from a dream! Never had a better "kick in the balls!" 😂It was delicious! I cannot believe I finished it. Came here twice during my most recent trip to OC. Built my own burger the second time. Prices were decent too. Get the souvenir cup or a tshirt on your way out. This is the spot!

We ordered breakfast takeout here while staying at the hotel next door, and it was a great choice! The food was delicious, the portions were generous, and the prices were very reasonable. Even the kids absolutely loved their meals. Highly recommend grabbing breakfast here!
