    We used to avoid coming here on the weekends because of the long waits. Now that you can make a reservation is so much better. Our food was amazing, Patty our service was very attentive and friendly. I wanted to make sure management knew how satisfied we were. Walter came to our table and asked how everything went. We told him that this was one of our better experiences here. I hope they continue to be on top of their food quality and good customer service.

    Two friends flew in from out of town & I suggested we try C Level. Neither had been before. It was a sunny gorgeous day & we sat out on the patio. The service was impeccable and the food was delicious. We ordered the lobster Mac & cheese, fish & chips & shrimp & crab Louie salad. Everything was fresh & flavorful. They loved our lunch & would highly recommend it.
