A truly enjoyable dinner. The calamari with jalapenios were perfectly crisp. The scallops, pork belly and squid ink risotto was absolutely delicious and original. The salmon en croute was well executed and so was the Seaventure seafood stew. While the cheesecake was good, it is disappointing that the dessert choices are so repetitive at every restaurant, plain or fancy.
