We came from abroad (Belgium) and we loved Yellowfin! The portions sizes were amazing and the fish was super fresh and delicious. Our server Brandon was so kind and friendly. We would definitely come back!

While the parking was limited, this restaurant was fantastic. We ordered the Tuna Poke nachos, which were fresh, delicious, and served fast. The waterfront views were top-notch, so make sure to ask to eat outside. Our server was friendly, welcoming, and had a great chill vibe. We will be back to try other dishes on their menu.

Great first experience! Found this place by accident. The service was fantastic and the food was excellent. It was a perfect day around 75 degrees with a great breeze to eat by the water. We would definitely recommend it and will be back next time we're in town.

This was our second time back...food was amazing as usual ..had a super hard brioche roll on the crab burger, the chef sent it back out on a hamburger bun..EWWW!!! But talked to the waitress and management and they made it right along with it finally coming back out on a soft brioche!! The atmosphere is great, the staff is great and the food is GREAT!!! DELICIOUS!!! Our favorite place on the waterfront...a few hiccups happens, and they come and they go...can't wait to come back!!!! Tuna poke nachos for the win!!!

Our waitress was Lyndsey and she was one of the best servers ever. She was very personable and made sure everything was good and just right with our time there. She went beyond and above for my wife and I. We even went back to see her the next day, but restaurant was closed. Ask for her and be sure to tip her well!!
