This place is under new management and is now a great restaurant. The older posts that complain about the food and other issues used to be true but I was pleasantly surprised by the outstanding experience I've had the last two days of eating here. The fries are crispy and light, my burger was juicy, the calamari was tender with a great sauce. Also the service was great, Kami was out server today and she was great. Overall a great experience, don't be afraid to give them a try!

This is a nice convenient restaurant. The food was OK. The drinks were pretty expensive, but the service was good. It was nice not to have to leave the resort to get a drink.
