We were really looking forward to trying this place and knew it has very specific opening days / times so we planned our day to come here. We arrived at 5:45 and were told it was an hour and a half wait. The lady was a little too the point and the guy on the grill was friendly and apologized for the wait. She told us to phone ahead next time. So we paid put our order and went to do something else. We planned to be back for 7:15. We got a call at 6:20 saying be ready in 20 mins to be back, we asked if we could have our 7:15 pick up time and they said no. So we rushed back to that area after leaving and our food was just coming off the grill. The steak was amazing we ate a few pieces on the drive back, the shrimp were huge and juicy, and the scallops were done great, one of the 3 was bad though and tasted extremely bitter (it looked fine so not blaming them as that happens). My wife upgraded to the fried rice for 4 dollars more. I stuck with the plain rice which looked kinda sad when I opened my container to 3 scallops and 5 shrimp and plain rice (see photo), I should have upgraded the rice. For the two of us it...

MENU: Chicken, steak, scallops, shrimp, fried rice, and catering.
FOOD: Steak & Scallops Many will say that the meat is under seasoned, but to me, it had the perfect amount of salt which brought out the natural flavors of the meat. They offered some sort of ginger-based dipping sauce which was good but I prefer my steak plain.

The two thick scallops were nicely seared on both ends and had a good taste. I opted for garlic fried rice for a few bucks more. I couldn't detect any garlic flavor but the diced sauteed onions and Portuguese sausage mixed in made my buds happy. I just wish the portion was a little more as I was still hungry after, and the only reason why this isn't a 5-star review.
SERVICE: The female taking orders was welcoming and friendly.
OVERALL: Nice menu, good taste. Pricey? I think not as I've had fast food combo meals ring in at the...
Read moreWow. Everything you read is true. This place is outstanding. Two very kind people making a living by making outstanding food for you to take home and enjoy. We ate here two nights in a row. The scallops are groundbreaking. You get two. They are huge and the food cost is astronomical. Deal with it. The steak can be a little chewy, but it is very good. No criticism of the chicken. Pay the extra $4 to get the fried rice. It's worth it.
There is no need for two people to order two plates. Split one and take it to a close by beach to...
