" Ordered the fish tacos today, and they were fantastic! Lightly breaded and cooked to perfection. Paired with their homemade salsa, made for a delicious meal. The staff members were so cheerful and welcoming too. My only complaint is that sometimes the lines can get really long during lunch hours, but it’s worth the wait for sure! " (*Curated Review*)
