The vibe and outdoor seatings were nice for a chill-out time on Friday nights. But the quality of the food turned the mood around 180 degrees.
Ordered 3 skewers since they were on the front page of the menu and said to be marinated with house-made sauce. Baby potatoes and the $4 beef steak (came to be three bite-size cubes of grilled beef on a skewer) were decent.
However, I would urge the eatery to reconsider having the $6 grilled whole squid on the menu at all. Reasons being: (i) if diners were meant to savory the pure flavors of char-grilled seafood, the first bite shocked us with only taste of a burnt lumpy squid; otherwise, (ii) they completely forgot to marinate the squid before grilling, period.
Sadly unimpressed on my first, likely last visit.
