| - Me and the wifey were craving fish so a search on Yelp lead us here. Seeing that some of my trusted Yelp buddies have already done a review on this place, I would say the decision to come here was a good one. With that said, I just found it ok. I may not agree with the reviews, but I respect their opinions.
First off, the prices here are a bit lower than what you would find at a higher end seafood place so that's a good start. Their menu options are pretty simple to understand. I opted for the Tilapia Cajun style. Comes with Cole Slaw and one side so I opted for Kale Salad. Im not into Cole Slaw so I substituted it for Grilled Veggies, which was a dollar more. My wife went with the Seared Ahi Cajun style with Kale Salad and substituted Brown Rice for yet another dollar more.
The Tilapia was decent. It was nice and flaky but I thought it could of used more seasoning. Since I had it Cajun style, I was expecting a bit of a kick to it, which I found none of. The grilled veggies were really good. You got sliced carrots and red bell peppers cooked just right with that little bit of crispiness to it. My wife's Seared Ahi was just ok. Again, hardly any of the Cajun flavor was evident. The Brown Rice was just ok.
Notice I didn't mention the Kale Salad. It's because that salad is worthy of it's own paragraph! Now I have never been much of salad eater and when I do, kale is definitely not my first choice but after experiencing it here I was hooked! Their Kale Salad by itself is worthy of a 5 star rating. From what I recall, it had sliced strawberries, almonds and carrots. As for the dressing, it had a strawberry infused poppy seed vinaigrette type of taste to it. I kid you not if this was all I had for lunch or dinner I would be satisfied! So whatever you get here, make sure the Kale Salad is a part of it or your trip is going to be a waste!
Because of the tasty Kale Salad, that is what prevented me from giving this place 2 stars instead of 3. Why you ask? Well I am spoiled by my favorite fish place called California Fish Grill that has several locations in Southern California. Memo to the owner: Check these guys out and you will know what you are dealing with. Their prices are a bit cheaper, the portions are a bit more, and when you get the Cajun style flavor, you actually get the spicy kick you are looking for. You also get different salsas you can put on your fish at no additional charge.
So overall, I still need to find a place that is comparable to my favorite place in California. But for awesome Kale Salad, this is my go to place.
