I ordered the fish and chips, and I am not a big fan of fish that isnt beer or tempura battered fish however this wasn't bad at all. The tartar sauce is am sure is made in house and for those who are don't like their tartar sauce sweet this is the winner. The dil pickle and I think there is some type of mustard in it paired so nicely to the fish. Cocktail sauce was probably the best I've ever had from a restaurant oh and the coleslaw was also the best I've had as well such a perfect balance of flavor. The atmosphere was quite and had a beautiful view. I parked outside the wharf not knowing there is parking along it but the walk was worth it. The waves was so big they smashed to folks on the pier.

The family and I came here at a really off time where it was completely empty. The waiter made sure we got a good seat overlooking the water and made us feel really comfortable. The waiter answered all questions and help us select some really good food. We all really enjoyed ourselves and thought the food was amazing. Highly recommended.

It was on the Santa Cruz pier and we sat at a window during our late lunch. I had the filet mignon and lobster tail and she had the swordfish...it was delicious. Our server Beau was very attentive and staff was pleasant. Thank you.

6/10 amazing view service needs a bit of work got acknowledged like 3 times I got the fire fish grill itself small little portion little drinks Needs some music also Oysters were fresh but lots of shell inside the oyster I did like the view inside the kitchen preparing area Cocktails are mostly ice and cup 🥲 Service hyped the ice cream up I was expecting something delicious seemed like store bought ice cream I had my expectations pretty high looking at the reviews and views

Customer service was great! Food was pretty good, beautiful view of the ocean. Fish was pretty good, batter was pretty crispy but a little soggy on the inside. Pork was cooked well, not too dry. Oysters were good, nice portion size. Caesar salad was good with homemade croutons.
