    Very welcoming staff and excellent service throughout our meal. Opted for the Endless Shrimp offer, with the Parrot Isle Coconut and Marry Me shrimp dishes turning out to be my favorites. Restaurant and grounds were very clean and well kept, indicating a sense of pride on the part of management/ownership.
