    Wonderfully decorated for the holidays makes a wonderful dinner with family that much more special. Great food and service was expected and more than delivered. Our family tried three different dishes, an appetizer and of course a fantastic desert. You’ve gotta try that white chocolate bread pudding. It’s amazing and watching the center ooze out and mix with the raspberry cream sauce was mesmerizing.

    We enjoy having their ceviche, which has fresh ingredients. crab fritters are super tasty, the crispy two noodle shrimp salad is one of our favorite. It is tangy and crunchy and savory. Really great flavors coming together. The fried fish is good as well. As usual the margarita's are a great.

    All I can say is that the food was excellent, along with the staff! No wait at about 8 pm (on a Monday). I started with the Tuna Tacos, and they were so good that I didn't even need my entree. I also loved the grouper plate dinner. VY was my server and was spot on with service and suggestions. Will be visiting this hot spot again soon!

    Tucked inside a bustling mall, this seafood restaurant truly impressed me—not just with its fresh, flavorful dishes at reasonable prices, but with the level of service. The staff was warm and polite, and to my surprise, they still had my contact from a visit to another branch five years ago. Talk about attention to detail! The food came out incredibly fast, which we appreciated since we were in a rush to catch the F1 premiere. Everything we ordered was solid, but the calamari is a must-try—crispy, tender, and perfectly seasoned. I also had the Pineapple Mojito—a bit sweet for my taste, but still refreshing and well made. Overall, a great experience. Definitely a go-to spot for quality seafood and efficient, thoughtful service—even in the middle of a busy mall.

    The food is always a hit here. Staff is very kind and friendly. My boyfriend likes the coastal flats in Fairfax better. He says the freshness of food tastes better. I love how cozy this location feels. We were seated quickly on a Sunday.

    We had really good experiences dining here. The food was great - we particularly liked the bread, mango salad and fried calamari. The service was top notch. The ambiance was also good. The price point was reasonable. It’s a great option if you plan to eat in a restaurant while shopping in the Tysons Corner shopping mall.

    Good quality food, amazing service, and cozy voices in a very spacious restaurant. The ribeye was very tender and flavorful and the coleslaw side was delectable. The fish taco, shrimp fritter, chicken with angel hair pasta and shrimp roll were all great.
