In front of Sea Bowl (sharing parking lot), casual with outdoor picnic table, volley ball and music on weekends. Pizza, fish tacos, kale salads and hawaiian ribs all very GOOD. Service in general is hit and miss, so be laid back, this place can be a mad house with disjointed service. A kid friend place too.
