    So, my wife, son, and I stopped in after a not so good round of golf for a bite the other night. Sorry if this gets long. First, service It was great. Our server (sorry, I can't hear well and didn't get his name) he used to be a pipeline worker who gave it up to be back here near family. He was amazing. My wife was skeptical when he did not write a thing down. But this dude is on point, and so was the order. Food. My wife had a chicken wrap and then asked for onionrings too, my son had a chicken burger, and I had the Carnivor pizza with onion and olives. Wrap was excelent, says the wife. The chicken burger was spot on. And added onion rings that the server didn't forget were frigging awesome. The pizza I got was absolutely one of the best ever. Don't let the whole wheat crust fool you. It is light fluffy and crisp as it should be. These folks have it dialed in,don't be scared to stop in if waiting for a ferry. I'm pretty sure they can make it happen. When we were leaving a 21 top showed up, and the server said with a smile that it was not a problem, we will make it happen. Nice work, folks

    A nice place to eat if you're fresh off the ferry or waiting for one. The service was really five star, the food was good but boring special. A big menu with lots to choose from. The interior is a bit dated but the patio was so cool to sit and watch the ducks and the ferrys.
