Fast Food RestaurantSeafood RestaurantTake Out RestaurantChicken Restaurant
Real seafood should be sourced from real sea-places, like, you know, oceans. So that's exactly where we source our wild-caught Alaska pollock, wild-caught Alaska salmon, and wild-caught north Pacific cod. We’re no one trick sea pony.

    The app wouldn't load in order to get specials. These can only be ordered online. I got 2 piece chicken basket. Very small pieces of chicken and very salty. 😒

    Drive through dinner was incredibly disappointing. Food was old, cold and hard. The shrimp were unrecognizable - they were so small and shriveled and hard they were completely inedible. The only good food item was the pumpkin cheese cake... too early in the season to be spoiled I guess. I would avoid this restaurant at all costs.
