Allen Arcade: 4sq tipsters are awesome. Had the grilled fish and shrimp tacos as well as the shredded beef. Wow!! The mango pie is good but overrated.
Celia_OvOxO: Grilled shrimp tacos are a MUST :)
Pablo Pesquera: The Summer Special is really good. 3 shrimp tacos with mango , avocado, and cilantro and a cup of black beans.

Pal A: Love the chicken tikka taco and the fish taco with the curry mayo. Awesome. Rotisserie corn is incredible as well.
Nidz M.: Slow roasted angus brisket, ahi poke, and spicy tikka chicken are my 3 favorites here.
Eric Henao: Kinda loud atmosphere. Rotisserie chicken taco was dry. Fish and Chips taco was good and worth ordering again.

Zachary Hiller: Try the Kid Rock Roll: unagi, spicy tuna, jalapeno.... it is delicious.
Ernest Hill: love the chef presence. fish was fresh, salmon and flying fish roe as good as anywhere; most rolls too spicy for my tastes, will search the menu for simple. no wine for my date(?!), but i will be back
Jenn: The Dylan Roll was especially flavorful - a yellowtail roll, topped with escolar, avocado, green onions, garlic, and masago.

Rajat Roy: While the Mac and cheese was fantastic, the chicken and fish and chips were truly sub par. It is way overpriced for what it is. I will admit it has a decent wine selection. Service was good tho!
Clifton M: Salmon plate w/ a nice (15% off special BTG) Sancere. Never disappoints - food, wine & service.
Ms. Damaris E: The fried egg sandwich and shrimp and grits are both delicious!!
