Summary: The most fun I've ever had at a restaurant! Great for girls night out, 21+ y/o birthday celebrations, or date night. The drinks are in fun colors, huge glasses, and come with a pineapple shaped container that hangs on the glass rim and holds an extra shot or syrup. Service is exceptional here (shout out to Liz(?) from the bar that had to work as a server that day! You made our night!). Before Corona, they would have live music outside which would only enhance our experience there. Price is best for your buck- I thought I would spend a lot of $$ here but the food is a lot cheaper than most seafood restaurants.
Food & Drinks/pricing: My friend and I ordered the Top Sirloin & Coconut Shrimp ($19.99) which comes with broccoli and mashed potatoes. I love a good mashed potato and the coconut shrimp was great but can be too sweet at times. I wanted my sirloin to be medium well-done, but it came out to be well-done instead. This is not a huge issue for me as I'm not very picky, but our server was so exceptional that I'm sure they would have redone it if I asked!
However, I did find the quality of the sirloin to be disappointing. It felt like mashed up beef that was cooked into the shape of a steak. It had a texture similar to a hamburger where it's grainy and not like it's one piece of meat. I didn't find the taste to be terrible, but I did not expect that texture from a steak.
For our drinks we started off with a whole bottle of Merlot Dark Horse California ($32) which is described to have "crushed blackberries, toasted oak, and chocolate-covered cherries." We went with this because we wanted a semi-dry wine to go with our steaks. The flavor notes sounded amazing but fell short in reality.
The wine was very weak in flavor. It was more of a bitter sensation than a bitter taste is the best way I could describe it. Like if water was bitter, it would be like that. However, the server did let us try a sample before choosing (will probably sample the other 2 next time) so that's on us for not speaking up!
My friend got the Ultimate Margarita ($10.79) while I got the Frozen Bahamarita ($7.99). We also asked for extra shots to make it stronger and Liz* kindly did that without any extra charge! Maybe we got lucky cause she normally works at the bar, but our drinks were fantastic, great to look at, and we loved the little pineapple storage cup thing that you can take home!
Note: Definitely reserve a table here! Also, specify what table/area you want and they will try their best to work with you! Smoking is allowed outside/ near the side of the restaurant- not sure about the outdoor bar area though, all workers wore masks but I did see some take it off here and there. Just be mindful that people are dining inside and not wearing masks so come at your own (and others) risk. Will definitely come here again! read more
