They just do a few a little differently I noticed. When I come, I order a pound of shrimp: jellyfish smack, medium, with an addition of sausage. (Corn and potatoes too if I'm feeling really hungry.) I always like ordering a side of rice so that I can pour the sauce on top of it for that extra flavor. The service is good. It normally isn't too busy and they provide you with all the utensils: a bucket to dump ur shells, a bib, gloves, salt, pepper and lime if you need it as well.

So glad I finally made it to this place. We were here' on a Wednesday evening and the place had…read moresteady stream of guests. Service was quick and pleasant. We were seated right away. The mission of this visit was to try the seafood boil, and boy were we thrilled! The place didn't disappoint, Food was fresh and flavorful. We ordered garlic butter noodles 4 Yam fries 5 flavorful and crispy with a spicy dip. Seafood boil 4.5 good quality and flavors, I felt it was a tad salty, but I won't complain. Unlike the other seafood boil places the food came in a ceramic serving tray. We ordered the house sauce with medium spice with shrimp, king crab and clams.The spice level was perfect and so was the sauce. Very pleased with this service, portions, pricing and the flavors. Definitely coming back to taste several other items on the menu. I would have loved for them to play some music rather than the silence. I wasn't too bothered. Y it though since I was too focused on the food.

Bread isn't included, so make sure you also order a side of the toasted bread points. The roasted eggplant sandwich was plentiful and hearty. The Catalan style sautéed prawns were hearty, but spicy just enough. The wine menu was well curated, which I appreciate because it really does have something for everyone. If the weather is hot, you gotta do the crisp and light Chenin Blanc. If you're adventurous, try the Fiano (which isn't a common varietal), and you'll be pleasantly surprised with the fruity undertones. Both paired well with the burrata and the eggplant sandwich. Meanwhile, either of the Pinot Noirs and even the full bodied but not too spicy Syrah were nice complements to the prawns because the dish also had chorizo. It was fun to ask for recommendations and then sample before settling. By doing so, we noticed the wide variety flavor profiles of the foods and the wine pairings, which obviously, makes us want to come back. I mean, we gotta try everything now.

We started with the steamed clams in this garlic sauce, which were AMAZING. The sauce was so flavorful, and dipping the bread into it made it even better. We also ordered the beet salad, which was pretty good, along with the seafood linguini and seafood paella. The linguini was decent, but the seafood paella was definitely the star. It had a creamier, cheesier flavor compared to traditional paella, but it was so rich and satisfying. Service was great, and the atmosphere makes it a perfect place to sit down, relax, and enjoy your company. I've seen some reviews mentioning slow service, but honestly, I think we're just so used to being in a rush.. this felt like a nice, leisurely dining experience. I'll definitely be back to try their loaded clam chowder on Sundays!

Came here for Mother's Day and unfortunately had a really disappointing experience. Our server was…read morekind and doing their best, but the food quality and overall experience were not good at all. We drove almost 3 hours to visit while spending the day in the area, and honestly, we would've rather grabbed fast food instead. What made it worse was that we were hoping to treat our mom to a nice meal, but all of us ended up disliking the food. The appetizer plates we were first given were visibly dirty, so we had to ask for clean replacements right away. A few people in our group ordered the loaded clam chowder since we'd seen so many positive reviews online, but it was extremely underwhelming. The seafood tasted undercooked and the soup itself had barely any flavor. The wait time was also frustrating. We received appetizers fairly quickly, but waited almost an hour and a half for our entrees. During that time, staff kept coming by offering extra bread and refills we didn't ask for, which honestly felt more like an attempt to make up for the long delay. Meanwhile, several larger parties that arrived after us were served their meals before we were, even though our group was only 5 people. What also made the experience uncomfortable was that once our food finally arrived, we felt rushed to leave. After waiting, staff were already trying to clear plates while some of us were still eating, which felt unfair considering the delay was completely out of our control. By the time the food finally arrived, the quality just did not justify the wait. Overall, it was a very disappointing Mother's Day experience, especially after driving so far. Sadly, we won't be returning.

The ambience is pretty nice, they have nice animal pictures throughout the restaurant. They have indoor and outdoor seating, a full walk up or sit down bar, and TV's. 3 stars. #3. The service was fantastic, glasses constantly being refilled, asked us if we wanted more bread and butter and our server made some great recommendations "5 Stars" The Food: #1. They gave us 2 nice warm bread rolls with a room temperature salted butter cube. The bread at first tasted salty but then my palate caught up and oh snap! this bread was good!! 5 Stars! #2. The server recommended the beef Wellington. "I ordered it med rare, it came to me med rare" it comes with mashed potatoes and longstem broccoli with cherry tomatoes, and a wine/vinegar reduction for the Wellington. The broccoli had a nice crispness to it and were seasoned perfectly, the cherry tomatoes added some brightness. The mashed potatoes were silky smooth and paired perfectly with the Wellington. NOW THE BEEF WELLINGTON: OH MY .....GOSH!!! My eyes rolled back into my head, it was so good!! The beef was as soft as butter, I could have used a butter knife to cut it (not kidding) and it melted in my mouth. The seasoning with the dough and the spinach with the mushrooms inside nearly caused a wet dream (if you get my point) "and don't even get me started on their reduction sauce for the Wellington!" The waiter walked up to me and smiled and said "and I quote"... gives you goosebumps, right? Oh he knew, HE KNEW!! 5++++ Stars! #3. Wifey ordered the Grilled Salmon salad. She ate the Salmon so fast that I barely had a chance to taste it. She said she really liked it, now I did get a chance to taste the salad and I must say that it was so good that it could have been a stand alone dish. Again 5 Stars. #4. And for dessert we had tiramisu. It came plated beautifully with a raspberry, strawberry, blackberry, whipped cream, and a beautiful orchid flower. The flavor while not the best I've had was still pretty darn good 4 Stars. Overall food and dining experience at the restaurant easily hits 5 stars! Total bill for said food - tip $124 pricewise I felt it was well worth it. Oh I will be back!

Pizza, lemonade and dessert for kids priced at $12 drinks not included. We got our boys lemonade. Appetizer was Calamari which was fresh melted in your mouth. Husband had the old fashion while I had a cab sav from Paso to go with our food. I had the cioppino and my husband had the Atlantic salmon with risotto. My only comment was the crab in my cioppino was not fresh. I can tell that the crab was already cooked when added to the dish.... Yes I can tell. Overall food was great. I wouldn't order the cioppino again because of the crab. DJ was our waitress. Loved her. She made us feel like family. With a 3 and 7 year old she made us feel comfortable and interacted with our boys. Makes a difference when you have great waitresses!

We got seated outside and immediately got the bread with garlic and olive oil. It was delicious! We ordered the calamari as an appetizer and the portion was decent. The sauces were both spicy which we loved! If you're not a spicy person, may not enjoy them. The calamari had an even ratio of rings and tentacles. The breading was light and the calamari tasted delicious and fresh. I decided to go with the Fettuccine al Pescatore and I was blown away by everything about this dish. The pasta was delicious and a very generous portion. The sauce was amazing with a spicy kick. The seafood was a generous amount and tasted fresh and cooked to perfection. As I was enjoying this meal, I looked to my husband and said "this is one of the best meals I've ever had!" My husband got the ribeye steak and it was over cooked. He didn't enjoy it and complained quite a bit as he ate it. I told him to send it back but he just ate it. It took a while to get the server to come back to give us the check. We had to chase him inside the restaurant to pay. Ambiance is very laid back. Small indoor seating space but felt stuffy. Outside seating space with heaters. Outdoor seating was nice especially with nice weather. Saw a lot of locals coming to the spot. I will be coming back to enjoy another delicious meal.

Pasta has balsamic vinaigrette over the Gorgonzola cheese pasta, which made the pasta sweeter. Different but I don't prefer it. Bruschetta was ok, the bread was like a crostini, very crunchy! The Rotelle di Parma was very rich, with the abundant cheese. Service was ok. When mentioned a lobster ravioli may be out, it was already out awhile ago! Requested bread twice and was stingy with the garlic. Bummed they did not have aperol spritz. Sat outside which was not the best ambiance, highly recommend to eat inside. Not very elegant outside and no design or decorations to create that elegance appeal. NY Steak Penne Pasta Special $50 - 4/5 Rotelle di Parma $26 - 3/5

You don't stumble into this place. You find it because someone you trust whispered about it, or…read morebecause you were looking for something no chain store could ever understand. From the outside, it's easy to miss. Tucked away in Gilroy like it's keeping a secret. Inside? Every square foot is doing overtime. The aisles are packed with Filipino staples, snacks that probably remind someone of home, frozen foods, sauces, canned goods, everything stacked with purpose instead of presentation. It's not trying to impress you. That's why it does. The fluorescent lights buzz overhead. Cardboard boxes wait patiently to be unpacked. The shelves aren't curated by a marketing department; they're curated by necessity. By experience. By knowing what your regulars will come back for next week. You won't find polished displays or self-checkout kiosks here. You'll find authenticity. The kind that can't be manufactured. Some places are built to attract everyone. This one was built for the people who already knew where to look. And somehow, that makes finding it feel like you've been let in on a secret. Five stars. I'd rather shop here than in a grocery store ten times its size.

My wife and I know all the servers by their name as we go weekly. Today I went there and we got a new server, now I realize there is a training period but we've seen him there for at least three weeks. I had to repeat myself at least two / three times on getting the order correct, simple things like BBQ sauce on the side. When the order came, it had sweet potatoes fries instead of shoe string fries. Again, simple things but the order was incorrect. His name is Christian, I would not get him again period! Now the other servers like Sam,Monique, Jeremy for example are excellent in fact a 5+. So ask for them and your meal will be special because of the service. Hopefully Stacks will take this as constructive criticism. Gino and Clair
