Just ate here last night with my mom so I thought I would drop a line. The service was great, the atmosphere was also great.. The crab dip appetizer deserves the raves.. We cleaned the entire dish! I had the Shark and Back.. It was a nice filling but not heavy dish.. The fish was cooked perfect, the garlic mayo dip mixed well with the mango salsa.. I was happy with it.. Mom had the Hamburger.. and it was also great... Quality hamburger with a little zip.. Overall, I just loved the place.. definitely one of my favorite places to eat now in Milwaukee..

Sarah D. said: The crab dip is my favorite item on the menu thus far. During chilly winters here in Milwaukee, I'm certainly going to be seeking Caribbean inspired everything!!!
