Just like I said last time, I am really backed up with my review posts, but since it's a 4-day weekend, and right now I am doing nothing but watching a "Moonshiners" marathon on the discovery channel, now is a perfect time to catch up.

So "The Tattooed One" wanted to take me to this place.  I think he waited to take me without "The Pretty One" because he knows although I don't go out looking for healthy-ish food, unlike "The Pretty One," I will at least try it.

So From the outside it looked pretty promising. Now for those of you that will not be heading to Hawaii anytime soon, just go to their website on the top of the page and you will see some stateside locations (Sorry my Wahingtonians....the closest to you is in California.)

So for as promising as the outside looked, I would never imagine that the inside was going to be like this...



This is the counter area (and yes Kara...if you look close you will see that they serve Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream.)

Now I am not necessarily a "Surfer Dude," but something about this place just seemed like my kind of place.

So the menu was a lot of healthy, seafood inspired tacos, burritos, and stuff like that.

The key to whatever you order is ORDER THE GREEN SAUCE.

Tattoo told me that and I didn't believe him, but please...trust me, and thank me later.

Now since I didn't trust him I only ordered a little on the side, but if I go again I will have it "Wet" (that means have it covered in sauce.) because it is so good.

So Tattoo kept telling me about the Outer Reef Burrito (So it's you choice of meat filling, with cheese, lettuce, white or brown rice, and your choice of black or cajun white beans.) But I also wanted to try the fish taco so I ordered both to be able to give a little more of a review.


So the fish taco was O.K. nothing special, but the outer reef burrito was really good, I just wish I had more than that little cup of green sauce, but even without it, the healthy food actually not just tastes good, but was really filling, but doesn't make you feel too sluggish afterwards.


So final say...The prices are a little high, I am not necessarily going to force a reason to be in the neighborhood just to eat there, but I have no problem going there again.  Also for you on the island, keep an eye out, because not only do they have their restaurants, but they also have mobile stands that they take to concerts and events on island.
