Great place to get grill fish and it’s delicious. I tried the salmon, tilapia, sea bass, and a couple more, and they tasted great. I also tasted the grill chicken burger, and it was really good. I haven’t had any trouble ordering online, and the food is made fast every time I make an online order. The employees are courteous and attentive.

Nice nice super nice place to eat. Small outdoor seating area, plenty of indoor seating, inviting peaceful atmosphere. This is a clean restaurant with excellent customer service. More importantly, the food is delicious! Fresh and filling. The dynamite shrimp bowl is my favorite but they also have a non spicy option. (Keto shrimp bowl)

Restaurant was near our hotel are here 3 times over a weekend trying something new each time. I was pleased with each meal from the fish quality to the sides. Really enjoyed the grilled fish taco and the swali, as well as the kale slaw. Good stuff!

Excellent tasting fish tacos and Stubs sodas make a couple of the great things about this place. Food was delivered for take out promptly and with all the condiments we requested. My wife and son both got the regular fish tacos–my son got the hot honey fries and my wife got the brown rice. I got grilled salmon tacos without the cajun seasoning (too much salt!) with the zucchini side (which was delicious). Everyone loved their tacos and the hot honey friends and the zucchini were both very nice sides.
