    Four of us went to lunch here.  They were accommodating, locating a table so we could park a stroller.  The waiter came over right away. He served us drinks, took our order, and then we didn't see him again for about half an hour. Two tables of people came in after we did and were served long before us.

    The fish and chips came out steaming hot and crispy, the fries were good too. The Cuban sandwich was dry and only half was eaten. The muscles marinara were delicious. The sauce was hot and spicy. The muscles were small
    And tender.  I felt the portion was small. The salad with salmon was crisp and fresh with a variety of lettuce.  However, the salmon was small and lacked seasoning.   For 20.00, I felt it was not worth it  

    The place is right on the water which is nice. I feel
    Our waiter forgot about us and that was the reason for the long wait.

    I really wanted to love this place. I love so close to the mile and keep forgetting to try Rachel's. Unfortunately today was not the best.

    I came with my mom dad and husband and baby. We were seated promptly and the server was sweet but the service was slow. For a Thursday afternoon it should not have took about an hour to get our food.

    My husband had the Cuban sandwich he said he did not like It, It was dry. My dad had fish and chips he said he loved It. My mom had the salmon salad and wished her salmon was bigger but said It was good. I ordered the fra Diablo mussels and they are OK. I would like to try again just disappointed this time around.

    Wound up here due to winning a $25 gift card at Richard Brodsky's AIDS/cancer 5k Run.

    Went on a Saturday afternoon with g/f.  Our order consisted of one beer, one cocktail called Hippie Juice, crispy Brussels sprouts, and spicey pomodoro mussels.

    Everything was delicious.  More then enough for two to share.

    Definitely worth going back to on a less breezy day.  We sat outside and did not dress properly.  Still did not cast a shadow on a good time.

    If you like tiny portions which would be appetizers anywhere else, that can best be described as cute, then this is the place. Not a very good value for the prices you will pay here.
