The pumpkin she crab soup is by far the best soup I have ever had. Everything was delicious and our waitress was outstanding.

We were lucky enough to get a table during the Grand Illumination and the food absolutely matched the beauty of the parade. Every bite of our meal from the pumpkin soup (that has the most amazing homemade croutons!) to the tuna tartare that was just melt-in-the-mouth delicious and the delicious scallops…every single bite was just amazing. I’m absolutely going to come back because I saw someone else get the GL burger and I NEED to try it! Looked amazing! Our server Christa was absolutely amazing. Extremely attentive but without being overbearing. Our drinks were always tended to and she was very knowledgeable about the dishes we were eating. The whole experience was just delightful from beginning to end.
