    Great holiday dinner! Lots of options- from traditional Christmas dinners with trimmings, excellent seafood selections, burgers, and sushi. Service was attentive and friendly in spite of busy holiday diners. Loved the miso-sake sea bass. Primo! Going back for happy hour soon.

    The ambiance is nice. Service was kind but a little on the slow side. Nothing unrealistic though. Food in tasted pretty good overall, but portions in were small for the price. My group agreed that each plate seemed about $5-$7 more than what it should've been

    It was a great Christmas early dinner for just the two of us. You could order from their regular menu or off their Christmas Day menu. We chose the latter and both had their traditional turkey meal. My husband who is very picky vegetable eater absolutely loved their green beans. For me I loved it all.

    Christmas dinner was not a present. Ordered the prime rib, worst prime rib I’ve ever had, dry, over cooked, flavorless. Others had similar experience with their food. Expensive lunch for a disappointing experience.

    Our server was knowledgeable, friendly and gave good suggestions when we inquired about certain menu items. She took the time to steer us in the right direction when making our dinner selections. We were dining on Christmas Day and arrived before most of the crowd were expected later in the afternoon. This made for an enjoyable experience with not too much noise and extra attention from our server and management as they moved around checking in on tables. From the burgers to filet to salmon everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Those in our group that had the tuna tartare starter said it was fresh and well worth ordering. At the next table I could see the turkey and ham specials and they also looked delicious. We would definitely recommend coming back.
