This trendy summer restaurant is a must-visit, although it can get a bit loud at times. It's highly recommended to make a reservation ahead of time, but the experience is well worth it. The food is surprisingly delicious, and the service is top-notch.

The seafood and Southern cuisine theme at this restaurant was spot on. The location was great and the staff were very friendly and efficient, providing excellent service. The menu was tasty, although some items could use a bit of trimming to enhance the dining experience. While some dishes were outstanding, others were just average. The fresh seafood, delicious fish and chips, and generous portion sizes were definite highlights. The fries could have been a bit better and the chicken dish was a bit lacking. Prices were reasonable for the quality of food, however, the lack of a wine list or quality drink selection was a downside. We did not try the cocktails. Overall, the service and location were top-notch, and the food was satisfying with minimal wait time. A major plus was the attentive waiter who made sure our water glasses were always full. This was especially appreciated on hot days like the one we visited, with temperatures reaching around 30 degrees.

The location of this restaurant is excellent, close to the sea and easily accessible from the city. The menu offers a variety of options, including seafood and classic grill dishes. However, our experience was a bit disappointing. The steak I ordered medium was overcooked and lacked flavor. The spare ribs were dry and overly peppery. The service was efficient but did not make up for the subpar food. The prices are high considering the mediocre quality of the dishes. I would recommend opting for seafood instead. If you do decide to try this restaurant, make sure to make a reservation as there may be a wait for a table.

Good kitchen every time we left. but today the opening hours were up to 21:00 clock and we were rejected a table waiting around 19:50 after 15 minutes. not nice to be treated like that.

May not recommend this place, as it seems awfully unorganized. for lunch when the rest was half full. the waiter was stressed and not very weeping. waited well 15 minutes before someone took our order. 40 minutes before I asked the waiter. when it comes to eating. it turned out that they had lost our job and had to wait longer. eating was good, though on the expensive side.
