    We had one of the best fine dining experiences at Pier W. My husband is on a very restrictive diet and I eat extremely clean. Our server, Samantha, was absolutely outstanding!!! Once we told her about our dietary needs/wishes, she immediately suggested we customize our dishes. We did and the chef did an awesome job! Samantha is as pleasant as she is knowledgeable. The atmosphere is amazing and everyone we came in contact with seemed happy to be there! Thank you for the experience!!! Can’t wait to return!

    Very good first experience. Sea food tower was a bang for your buck, oysters were top notch and serving size was big. Even the ahi tuna amount was wild. Seared scallop dish was delicious, scallops big, juicy and flavorful. Will be coming back. Service was great as well drinks never ran low before being asked if we needed another.

    The food was excellent. Service was kinda slow. Restaurant was beautiful. The river running along the side of the building was a very nice touch. Would definitely eat there again.
