The staff handled my faux paux so expertly and graciuosly. We loved our evening from start to finish. If New Years was such a great experience, a non holiday will be spectacular.

Beautiful restaurant with friendly, accomodating staff. Inside can be LOUD, outside is more quiet, with lovely views. Food is delicious and presented nicely. We had the stuffed flounder and the red snapper. Enjoyed both!

Food and service were outstanding. The venue itself is very nice but was a little bothered by how noisy it was inside. Had a hard time hearing our waitress and was a little difficult to carry on a conversation.
