It was busy when we arrived so we were seated on the patio across the road, which is a nice spot to look out over the water. The weather was slightly inclement so they made sure to seat us near the glass wall where the wind and damp would affect us less which was appreciated! The seafood was cooked well. Our only issue with the food was that the lettuce in our salads wasn’t really washed, making it a bit unpleasant as we found dirt and sand speckled throughout them… Besides that little thing it was a decently enjoyable meal in a scenic location. Thanks from Canada! 🇨🇦

We came here on a busy day, but the atmosphere, staff and food were all great! They have a vegan dish on their menu that changes every day. I got the falafel salad (comes with fries) and it was probably the best falafel I've had!
