The food was decent but the service is awful. Apparently there was a mix up in the kitchen and we never received half of our order (it happens, nbd). That manager never offered an apology and gave us attitude. She offered to remove the items that we never received and acted a though she was doing us a favor! Skip this place. Tourist dollars don't seem to be appreciated.

Part of 6. Was told 30 minute wait but were seating in 20. (Good job) it was very busy as it is a holiday weekend but the food and service were wonderful. Maggie was great. Portions were plentiful. Price was a little more than I expected but for the experience I'm ok with it. Would recommend.

Stopped in for a great lunch. We started with the Tuna dip appetizer (free with a coupon in the back of a tourist brochure). My wife ordered the combo fried mahi mahi and lumberjack chunks served with slaw and fries. I had the blackened lumberjack sandwich served with fries and slaw. Both portions were huge and delicious.

This business is not open and looks like it has been a casualty of the Covid It really doesn't even look like it will reopen. You'll have to find another Good Food, Cold Beer, legendary Hangout place.

We couldn't find it after trying 2 locations. The last location we stopped at said it was open on Yelp but clearly was not and likely has not been for a while. My family got scared and told me to leave. If that was the old location I'm not sure why there would not be any signs on the door or broken windows where the new location was. Not an enjoyable Yelp experience.

Could it be posted somewhere that they’re closed!??

We happen to pass the Porch but I was starving. I didn't want chicken or steak really just wanted to get a hamburger. I had some friends to tell me about this place. There's no warning of what it was going to look like and if it was a hole in the wall or if it's a big huge restaurant Nothing. They just told me the name. That's all I had to go by.We stopped at a gas station and ask them where it was oh boy we found it.Oh what did get myself into !!!!! Let's say it was the best hamburger I've ever put in my mouth I always say hamburgers better cook at home well this was as good. Thank you

It's a work in progress, will be great when done.

Love this place but it is expensive for what you get. Nachos are great but you won’t get out of there at lunch for less than 20 per person

Great hosts for my Jeep Clubs Christmas Meet/Greet. Great, fast service throughout the event. Very pleased and will return soon for more events! #GoBAJA

Best Burgers on the Beach! We do visit often, and consider this place a hidden gem. Burgers are good as if not better than Five Guys for a fraction of the price! Very lovely for us to, parking is always available. They will make your burger however you want it. The decor is maybe a little dated but when the food is this good it doesn't matter

Food was amazing, better price than all the beach places around here. I seriously doubt that any place within 30 miles has a better burger. The reviews that say its slow is true if you're use to a burger in 4 seconds from McDonald's. The food is cooked to order and quality food takes time. Owner is retired Marine he came and greeted my family and asked about the food. Fries are shoestring fries and delicious. I had the bacon, pepperjack, jalapeno burger and it comes with two patties. If you're looking for scenery and expensive saltwater aquariums with upcharges on food beacuse of it this is not the place. Even the check clearly lists what you order, cost and total unlike other places where it is a surprise at the end. Definitely a hidden gem that locals know about and tourists probably wish they knew about. I'll be back to try the 4lb California Burrito. Food was absolutely AMAZING!

I thought was a mediocre restaurant. It’s location is great if you’re in the area and there was on site parking. Steps on the side but elevator on other side. It is very casual and busy

Tried finding this place, couldn't find it anywhere. Phone line just says that they moved and hope to be open by July.... it's September. It said to check Facebook for updates and they haven't posted since July. Very confusing with current reviews still being posted.

Very nice atmosphere and servers are great. It’s a little pricey but the food is well worth the extra $$. The only problem was they cooked my crab legs to long and it took over an hour just to crack and dig the meat out. The manager did offer to cook a fresh batch but I was almost done so I declined. He did comp my bill. Just be sure to tell them not to cook the crab legs to long and you’ll be very happy with the taste of delicious seafood and other!
