Fodor's Review:

Okay, it's a chain, and a chain that centers around a Tom Hanks movie, no less. Get over it. For starters, it has one of the largest oceanfront patios on the island. And the food's not bad, once you get past the silly names. Anything with popcorn shrimp in it is good, and the "Run Chicken Run" salad (a combination of chicken, Gorgonzola cheese, walnuts, and cranberries) is the perfect size for lunch. Too bad they're no longer doing breakfast—they used to be one of the best in town for it.

The 2 shrimp dishes we had were pretty good, the salads, just o.k., the margaritas, fair. It is kid friendly. Worth a try at least once for dinner.
