It is very lovely place. It had the beach or Hawaiian feeling to it. The food look so good. But I love their frozen cocktail, They all looks so good! I really enjoy this experience.

Amber McCurdy
This place is great. The food missed 5 starts only because the corn shells of the fish tacos fell apart- a consequence of that shell when it gets any moisture. But the flavor was good. The drinks were good.

The staff was courteous and gave a great effort but there was not enough to take care of our party and the other guests adequately. The meal was tasty and well prepared and arrived quickly. The ownership was also inviting and gracious. The Pineapple Fried Rice was delicious and I recommend it. I will be back again.

Alexa Bishop
The drinks made me feel like I was on vacation—like a really awesome vacation. We had the queso/chips, cauliflower tacos and chicken torta… we had to order a second cauliflower taco because we had trouble sharing. Highly recommend for the vibes, the food, the drinks and the staff… definitely a unique spot that stays true to what it is. We will be back!

My new favorite restaurant in Louisville! Delicious tropical pancakes & Baja fish tacos. First rate service. Fun & relaxing Pacific vibe. I love the outdoors dining with friends. Reminds me of some of my favorite hangouts in Southern California. Can’t wait to try some of the other menu items too.

My new favorite place in Louisville! Great atmosphere, food and drinks—-especially the margaritas, so refreshing and delicious! Plus, it’s a bonus that the outdoor area is dog friendly, we have taken our pups to South Seas a few times and they love it too ‍ ‍

Went for dinner Sat night. Sadly, it was not very busy but the service and food was great! The Tortas can also be served as Tacos which we chose simply because thought they’d be easier to eat and more shareable! The fried chicken specialty was delicious – with a nice heat! The fried fish tacos was the best I have had anywhere in Louisville and there are some great taco places here. The cocktails (Mai Tai and Painkiller) were very well done also and almost as good as our favorite drinks/bar in Honolulu! We loved the casual vibe and the quality of everything for the reasonable prices! Will definitely go back!
