Fresh from our Strawberry Fest menu this weekend— Pacific Halibut.

Olive oil poached Pacific halibut topped with a bright strawberry sauce vierge and served with fresh asparagus from Mick Klüg Farms. The sweetness of the season’s first strawberries paired with fresh seafood makes for a dish that’s both light and full of flavor.

Available along with the rest of our Strawberry Fest specials featuring locally grown strawberries from Mick Klüg Farms.

Open Today 5–10pm
Tomorrow 5–8pm

Join us and enjoy one of our favorite dishes of the season.
