Editorial Review

Walk into this space done in dark blue and white tile, and you're greeted by a fisherman's market of fresh seafood on ice staring back at you from the other side of a glass display case. Unsurprisingly, the menu is all seafood, with Mahi Mahi tacos and red snapper leading the pack. The giant Margaritaville-style swordfishes hanging from the ceiling are the perfect antidote for the guilt you feel from eating something that's still staring at you.
