Freeman KuoJanuary 5, 2012Awesome place and i think you get money worth. Fish and Chips are incredibly filling.
It was busy; and it was just two of us. I had to run and do an errand. They refused to sit the wife because I wasn't there. I can understand if it was a party of four or five - but TWO? %#^* them.
La Jolla Blue BookJanuary 9, 2012The Fish & chips are enormous. Fun experience. And try a milk shake too!
Pear Salad is delicious. Nothing like candied walnuts and gorgonzola cheese in a salad.
Janina ViloriaDecember 19, 2011Their hash browns are too oily but their strawberry french toast is to die for.
Chef salad is fantastic. But I recommend splitting it cause its huge.
Awesome mashed potatoes, incredible asparagus, and heavenly butternut squash soup!
Joe JoffeAugust 7, 2011Delicious food, but skip the back patio - the sun shade tinges everything a creepy yellow
The Monte Cristo is outta control yummy! The Lobster bisque is a treat, if you like rich & creamy.
Gunslinger is a nice little breakfast. Monte cristo is a nice little heart attack
