The food was delicious. I had a cheeseburger and my friend had the lobster bisque. We stayed inside since it was chilly outside. It was also chilly in the restaurant as well. Service was great!

Having grown up in the restaurant biz and after running one of the most successful joints in town, I must say, THIS might be one of the most quintessential places in all of Southern CA. Makai (sp?)greeted us like we were family. Can’t wait to come back.

We wanted to sit on the patio and made a reservation for lunch but didn’t request the patio. We had a table inside. The music was way too loud as was the din of the patrons at the other two tables in our area. Aside from noise level, the food was surprisingly good!
