    Locals love it. Super fresh, variety of fresh fish you pick raw and they cook. Hole in the wall with great food, superb view, vintage feel, painted picnic tables, get friend or Cajun. See ya here

    This has to be one of the best fish restaurants I've ever been too. Red snapper was simply grilled and very fresh. Nice size portion. Mashed potatoes were delicious. Skip the salad side-boring/skimpy

    Esquire: Little seafood shack on land side of PCH. Order from blackboard menu—fish is offered grilled, Cajun style, or sautéed w/2sides (go for Cajun rice and slaw), grab a beer and picnic table

    Great crab cakes with lump crab meat and you get 3 large ones with 2 sides. It can get crowded during lunch on nice weekends but worth the wait.

    Very popular and casual seafood restaurant, you have to get a line, choose your seafood, sides and pay, they call you when is ready. Only fresh seafood and very tasty, price is ok. I'll come back!

    Stunning ocean views from this seafood shack compliment the tasty fried calamari and other options! The raw oysters & shrimp tacos will add to your favorites. Take it to go and sit on the beach!

    I had the Ahi salad. Wasn't impressed. I have faith tho. I'll be back and I'll try their plate. Must mention that the seafood case had a wide selection of fresh offerings

    Cajun sea bass is to die for. So as cajun scallops. Also crab cakes are amazing. The place is a hit!

    Get whatever fish they recommend and try it sautéed (halibut was solid when I went). Super fresh

    The oysters are fresh, and their cajun sea bass is so juicy. Be sure to order it with side of coleslaw and mashed potatoes 👍🏼

    Indecisive? Order the tilapia Cajun style, with mashed potatoes and salad on the side. Fresh and filling.

    So much outdoor seating! If you and your friend got into a fight on the PCH (maybe they didn't wanna hear you play Miley Cyrus' "Malibu" that 100th time), you can each simmer down at your own table.

    Don’t sleep on the Cajun seasonings. Great on the fish and you’ll need them to stir into your completely unseasoned steamed veggies.

    Disgusting shrimp tacos with sad soggy fries that look like it was made 2 days ago. Super dry tortilla and tough flavorless shrimp. With no sauce and cheddar cheese for some reason. Sad.

    The fresh fish entrees are great—especially the sea bass—but the fish tacos are not.

    NOT cheap - I paid 30$ for scallop and glass of wine. The portions are too small and my scallops were terrible - I've got bitter and over grilled dish which tasted like they forgot to clean the grill.
