The best place in Santa Cruz hands down! Went for the 1st time on Valentine's day 2024. They sat us next to the window over looking the ocean. Beautiful views.The drinks are Freaking the best! They actually put enough liquor to get you buzzed.The food was fabulous! I had the salmon , my husband had the moco Loco.I loved my drink "triumph and diaster" so much that we went back the following night.The 2nd night we went we sat at the bar. OMG! Sit at the bar if you get the chance....read full review

Dietary restrictions: I am gluten and dairy-free and I am a fish eating vegetarian. The menus were marked with little symbols that indicated gluten-free or can be made gluten-free. If I remember correctly they also mentioned what vegetarian/vegan options were available. The chefs and our server were more than willing to substitute sauces or items according to my dietary needs. I didn't even need to ask. Super warm and friendly staff.

The customer service was very good and I felt happy. The menu is also extensive. I ordered a poke bowl. It has lychee in it! However, it was a surprising combination and it was delicious. The quantities are all very large. I couldn't finish eating by myself. I think one woman is enough for two people.
