New owners. Prices a little high but food is good and location is fantastic. Watch the waves from the outside porch or inside through the window.

The smoked salmon linguine was the best pasta I've had in a VERY long time! Your pasta is FANTASTIC and perfectly cooked. The bread to go with was the perfect garlic and butter. And NOTHING greasy or over cooked. I want a HUGE BOWL of the noodles and the sauce....and no kids to bug me while I eat!

Not sure what the rave is about! No star if I could help it! Usually a 20-25% tipper and I regret giving even the $3 tip that I left (tip difference from their rip-off side of rice/beans). Their food is mediocre at best! They rely on tourism and location with their $$ pricing for terrible food. They were nice until we needed accommodations for my son's allergies. We went from Seattle to Los Angeles and this is the worse and least accommodating stop we made! We talked to them about my son's several allergies and they could careless about accommodating. We asked for a side of rice and a side of beans

Awesome food. A bit pricey, but everything we ordered was worth every cent.
Salmon linguine is a safe choice if you want something very tasty. Grilled salmon and mussels is a masterpiece, great sauce, amazing risotto and parsley root, yummy ๐Ÿ˜‹

I went to this restaurant initially for the calamari. The food was amazing. The clam chowder was creamy and super flavorful. Calamari was on point. I did read a lot of the reviews before I went there and the owner is right for replying the way that she did. For me the service was excellent and for such a small place they definitely know what they are doing. People really need to understand how to be patient especially during the new covid times. All in all I really like this place itโ€™s a nice cozy restaurant that I would definitely frequent as often as I am out here. Thank you to the small business

Very disappointed in this establishment! I am a foster for orphan kittens. I am on a road trip with 4 (3 week old) babies and stopped for water to warm a bottle. I was taking care of the babies and sent my husband in for me. He was told he could not have hot water. Not in the cup we brang, and not in a to go cup. There was no offer to buy a cup for hot water or to buy a meal to get the hot water. We were just told no. Now we drive to the next town and get hot water somewhere else and the kittens wait. I think it is ridiculous to tell a community member they cannot have water. Hot or cold. I was

Clean, fast service, good food. On the beach with indoor and outdoor seating. Pricing is normal for resort area.

The food is fine, but tourist pricing and service.
SUPER passive aggressive warnings on the menu discourages customizing order, asks that you "order what you can eat", and refuses to let you pay wish cash and card (among other things). Clearly written by a manager/owner who wants to hustle tourists through as quickly as possible without incurring extra work or minor additional expenses.
This was backed up by the actual experience. We requested onions on our burger, but received a single piece of onion. It also just took forever to pay our bill, as they kept seating new customers instead of processing

No Deep fried Oysters or Prawns, 5.00 side of fries, a bit spendy for light eater, must be a huge amount for that price! No, I spy with my little eyes, a small portion of fries, just brought out with a $12.00 hamburger, served to a customer nearby, see photo in metal tin (maybe 1 cup of fries. Will await our meal arrival..Very small portions of a hash, forgot roll of my friend's, had ask for it as well as tartar sauce for my oysters 3 times...I had to get up and ask another for it while oysters got cold. 12.00 oysters pan fried with scoop of rice.

Aside from our food being slow we were 2 couples and ask that ticket be split. We were told they could not do that and only one person could pay. That is absurd. This is the only restaurant we have had this experience. The food was only mediocre. We will not be back.

We visited the Sand Dollar in Rockaway Beach earlier this month, but didn't actually end up eating there. From the minute we walked in, the staff was almost confrontational, telling us that they wouldn't seat our party of six together. Okay, fine, we sat at two different tables. Then the waitperson said that since we were a party of six, they wouldn't split the bill for us. What?! Never heard of a restaurant that refused to split the bill. Our waitperson just kept telling us what she wouldn't or couldn't do. Just a very confrontational vibe to the place! See the menu (photo attached) for an example

We couldn’t believe how rude the people were here! When I arrived, the black haired hostess rudely told me that a group of 7 had to sit in 2 tables. I was fine with that, but it was how she said it that struck… me. She barked it at me like I was a child. I asked if we could sit outside and she said “yeah but if you get cold you can’t come back inside. I won’t be be switching tables.” She was so rude in her tone. Still, we decided to try it out and sat outside. Our group of 7 asked to have separate checks and we were told no separate checks for parties. Again

I contacted them for a large patio reservation. They said it wouldn’t be a problem, but to call during open hours. My sister and I both called separately EVERYDAY, (multiple times when “open”) but without a response until the next week. Then we were told that the time we ORIGINALLY requested was no longer available. Really?
