Food below average...too noisy, too try hard for my liking. Have been there four times and each time the dining experience has worsened. Perhaps more competent waiting staff would be a start. More

It was a good atmosphere as we were seated on the balcony with great views of main street and beach. There was a plenty of choice on the menu. Although the food was not top notch it was above average and good value. More
