    Solid disappointment. Oysters were the fishiest and worst we have had. Only had two and the waitress didn’t ask how they were and took them away. French onion soup was bland and didn’t eat it. The truffle fries lacked any truffle. The only thing that was good was the sushi. The server never asked how things were and was non existent. At the end of the day the total was $370 for two people and they never offered to take off anything. We walked away hungry and light in the wallet.

    I’m truly sorry to hear about your experience. This is far from the level of quality and service we strive for, and I regret that we let you down. I appreciate your honest feedback—it’s invaluable in helping us improve. I’d love the opportunity to make this right and personally invite you back as my guest. Please reach out so we can arrange a visit that reflects the high standards we aim to uphold. Sincerely, Matt Hobbs Executive Chef

    A special spot for a sunset dinner celebrating a birthday for my daughter in law. We enjoyed stunning views and a broad menu with lots of seafood choices in addition to an exceptional Tomahawk steak. Michael, our server was very attentive and gave lots of great suggestions.
