    We had a beautiful Christmas Eve dinner at Bayside. Our server Ornella was wonderfully attentive without being intrusive. We were seated directly bayside which was a true bonus! The service was impeccable and the did was as awesome as we’d hoped! My husband gad the filet and I had the seared grouper - both were cooked perfectly and were delicious! We will return - the view(we saw dolphins!), the service and the food were truly terrific!!

    We got an amazing table right on the courtyard which was great around the holidays with all the activity. Our server was OUTSTANDING, very attentive, great with taking special requests to modify menu items, and extremely personable. Food was excellent and the wine was served very cold just the way I like it. 10/10 dining experience!

    First time at Marco Prime. We were seated immediately upon arrival (we chose outdoor seating). Our waitress was attentive but not overbearing. Service was excellent as was the food. Pricey yes, but no more than any other fine dining restaurant in the area. Would recommend without reservation for a special evening.

    Trulucks never disappoints! Beautiful flower arrangements for Christmas. Server Joshua attentive with great command of the menu. Multiple managers stop by to check in. Four of us enjoyed oysters and bread to start. Then bronzino, lamb chops, rib eye with sides of steamed spinach, lyonnaise potatoes and crab fried rice. Finished with a half piece each of Keylime pie and carrot cake. Excellent dinner in a wonderful environment!!!! Highly recommend this awesome restaurant.
