I was walking by this restaurant and was looking for a menu, the surfer dude told me that it was whatever his dad caught that day, he showed me 2 beautiful fresh caught Grouper and told me it was $14 including Fries and some vegies, since I am on a bit of a budget I told myself no, but later...

We went there after reading recommendation on TripAdvisor, and it was totally worth it! The fish was fresh and very well cooked. Even my girlfriend, who doesn't eat fish, couldn't resist, and ordered a sea-bass. We ate there 2 nights in a row, and enjoyed every bite!

I'm not much of a fish guy but after walking past this restaurant, smelling the garlic and chatting to robby we decided to have a look at the fish. The drawer of the fridge was opened to reveal a heap of red snapper fresh off the boat. We ordered our fish and sat down. Robby recommended that we try some... More

Food was great. The fish was fresh and cooked too perfection. It was recommeded to us by a couple that was staying at our hotel and it didn't disappoint. Not much signage out the front and no real menu. Just the best fish in town at a reasonable price. Ask the locals, they were eating there as well.

I wouldn't like to joke, but here is the best atmosphere which I know around in the world. The boss, Lazlo, usually ask from his guest: What would you like to drink? ....and before you can answer, he tell this: You will drink only that, which we have! :-) :D The service speed is excellent, the humour of Lazlo is...

My husband and I ate at Lazlo's twice -- sea bass one night and tuna the other. He really enjoyed the fish there, especially the tuna. I thought the fish was meh, but I am not a fish connoisseur. The french fries, though, are to die for -- wonderful! The second time we ate at Lazlo's, we split an order... More

As it was crowded when I arrived I took a seat at the bar and ordered the tuna. Lazlo confirmed that I wanted it seared and it was a pleasure to watch him & his crew prepare the food. The food was amazing and the portion was huge... The only problem was blonde surfer boy who was the 'server' He... More

if you like fish this is the place for you, if you can find it. It is connected to Mama Mia pizza. Robbie is the perfect front man for this operation!

Went to try out this "infamous" restaurant and we were completely shocked, and insulted by the young blond wanna-be surfer who "greeted" us. We arrived 10 minutes before opening, because we were told that it is busy. He basically told us that there would be no fish for a long time. We said we can just sit and have a... More

We went to this restaurant only 10 minutes before opening and I have never been so RUDELY treated in all my travels. We have been here for 2.5 months and have heard that the dinner here is supposed to be so wonderful, but after how we were treated I would not support or buy water from this establishment. We were...
