4.7/5 stars 

A customer favorite here is the fish tacos! This place is unique and something new, although some items on the menu are a bit pricey, the money you put fourth is well spent! While it not the island paradise that one would gather up in there mind, while you are there if you close your eyes while you are eating you can almost imagine yourself in a small Hawaiian or Caribbean cafe eating authentic island cuisine!
