This is a restaurant/lunchroom, not a fast food chain. It even is a pizzeria or chinese restaurant. It has it all, under one roof, plenty of seats and tables and nice view to the outside.

Loads of outside seating and has its own waterfront for an excellent view of boats coming and going. Great chilling place in the summer but also cozy in colder weather with the fireplace inside.
