Anyone been? I think it opened just a week or so ago. It's in Marina del Ray.

I think that's a perfect location for that type of restaurant. Hopefully it makes it, because we have a serious lack of waterfront restaurants around here which is a damn shame.

That's a Shaggy's. Owner of TBT used to co-own Shaggy's but split and basically duplicated with TBT.

By their own descriptions I figured it wouldn't be anything crazy. It will just be nice to have another option of a place on the water to have a drink and burger.

My real hope is that someone can do something successful with friends. It's a shame to have such a good location wasted

I believe the property is being turned into office space with maybe a small restaurant on the bottom floor but not certain.

Great Restaurant. It's just not the place to grab a boat drink in your flip flops.

We launch the boat from that marina. TBT will be a great kickoff point.

I stopped by to check it out this afternoon. I just got a beer and a grilled cheese for my daughter. The grilled cheese was good, and the chips and queso that came with it were also good.

It's a pretty simple place, nothing fancy. The menu is very basic. They had a good list of beers and drinks.

I think for what it's intended to be it will be very successful.

I was kinda surprised they didn't dress up the outside a little more. They could have at least painted to old rusting metal railing surrounding the outdoor seating.

Yeah. Not the barge, but the 2 story building right next to it.

The old HookedUp.

I was there at lunch today for a couple of hours. Pork nachos were on point. Very limited menu.

I will say they didn’t spend much money upgrading the location. Low overhead operation with plastic silverware and no menus yet.

$3 domestic beer, 16 ounce aluminum cans which is a good buy

The waterfront is full of turtles, gar, and an alligator or two.
