The restaurant has an open and inviting space where travelers will find a laid-back, friendly atmosphere reminiscent of a Southern California beach house. An intimate bar welcomes travelers with signature cocktails, beer, and a California-inspired wine list perfect for some relaxation before flight.
Passengers can choose from a variety of menu items through a counter service and a grab-and-go section – from salads to tacos such as the Grilled Surfer Style Baja Fish Tacos and the Grilled Ancho-Chicken Tacos. There is an array of sandwiches and burgers for travelers to choose from, house-made baked cookies and bakery items and a specially designed breakfast menu.
