We tried Life's a Beach after the excitement had died down. We stopped in several times before only to be told the wait was 90 to 120 minutes. I'm glad we didn't try it with a wait because all parts of the experience where bad. Service was terrible, took 5 minutes + to visit our table to take drink orders [restaurant not busy at this time], forgot one drink, took food order forgot to log order to go to kitchen, when they finally did send it to the kitchen it took about 30 minutes to get 2 salads and fish tacos. The salad came out without the key ingredient in the name and after a few bites realized it didn't have the signature dressing. The waitress didn't charge us the for the salad but you'd think at least a manager would come by and apologize for the issues - but they we're out and/or didn't care. It's good the salad was comp'd because the drink prices are sky high. Save yourself an extra long bad experience and costs and just drive down the road to Applebee's where the service and food are better because of corporate standards and the prices are reasonable because they don't have to pay for a high depreciation schedule. My 2 centers.
Pros: Ambience and setting, location
Cons: Service, food and value
