"I recommend to AVOID this place....it was awful. You could tell that their mahimahi was made from being frozen, and mash potatoes were instant. There was only two other tables being served, and it took 2 hrs to get our main course. Server was ok."

"The sauces and flavors were all wonderful. Crabcakes were a little mealy but the paella was great. The prawns were huge on the shrimp cocktail! I would recommend this for a quick, casual dinner before going to the Honda Center. We enjoyed ourselves."

"I had the 'fresh catch' red snapper. It was frozen, not very tasty, and very salty. The only thing I liked on the plate was the asparagus, that's just cause I love it. Service was sketchy. They were slow with everything, messed up our order (although the missing entree came out pretty quickly, but I saw them do it to another table also). The patio was nice, they had heaters for chilly nights."

"The mussels were tender, juicy, and sweet. 4 stars.
The main dish, though, was disappointing. The "fresh catch" was tilapia, seasoned with seaweed and covered in a mango salsa. The seaweed didn't add very much flavor to the fish, which was dry and in some places crunchy. The salsa was good, but didn't "match" the flavor of the fish. It was simply good salsa on top of dry tilapia. I enjoyed the steamed veggies and mashed potatoes that came on the side more than the fish itself. 2 stars.
The chocolate souffle redeemed the meal, though. Great crust, with gooey inside, with vanilla bean sauce on the side to pour yourself. 4 Stars."

"I have eaten at this restaurant in the past and enjoyed my visit, that is why I booked a table in advance to entertain our business associates during the NAMM trade show. On arrival we discovered that there was a private party taking place in the main restaurant, forcing diners to other areas to eat. We had 45 mins for our table, only to be seated next to the pool where there was no cover. We informed the staff of our concerns has it had only stopped raining but were assured that it would not rain again. Half way through our meal it rained and we had to re-locate to another table that they managed to find for us. At the end of the meal our party wanted coffees and we were told that the coffee machine had broken. Not a great experience :-("
