“ Best avocado toast ”
“ Almost didnt come here when I saw that they might not have alternatives to their pork options for their breakfast sandwich. But that changed when one of the lovely servers their told me they had chicken apple sausagewhich I didnt even see in their Breakfast Menu But yeah cool place and from my first experience here I have the impression that the servers know their stuff and are considerate of customers. As you can see from the photos the food went exactly where it was supposed to my belly ”

“ Great variety of food, healthy options too . Nice beach view. ”
“ Ive lived in SB for over 10 years now and the other day was actually the first time Ive ever eaten here. I would normally not stop into a hotel to eat, but I had old friends staying there, so I stopped by to meet them for lunch. I was pleasantly surprised that the food and service was actually quite spectacular. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich which was juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. I wasnt thinking about drinking, however my wonderful server, sal recommended a cocktail called the love affair, I dont exactly remember what was in it, but it sure was delicious! Sal made excellent recommendations for both food and drinks and checked on me plenty of times. I wasnt expecting such 5 star service from what I thought would be a touristy pool bar by the beach. Because of its great location and stellar service, this might be one of my new regular spots! ”
