    Our main courses, Chilean sea bass and Salmon, were perfectly cooked and seasoned. Accompanying dishes were excellent. Wines by the glass were too; especially appreciated the selections from the Willamette Valley. Service was attentive.

    The food was expensive but mediocre in quality. The lobster did not taste fresh and was covered in paprika to hide the flavor and overcooked. The 2 scallops were ok but the risotto was overcooked and mushy.

    I’m not disappointed food was delicious. I had a grilled Spanish octopus. My friend had baked scallops and my husband Seabass, smaller portion. It was amazing. I always order octopus in restaurants like seafood restaurant and it did not disappoint at all as I said before. it was cooked to perfection. Ambience is very pleasant. Great service will come back again.

    My wife’s favourite in the valley. Excellent food at a reasonable price. Ambience is happy and busy but not unduly noisy. Very good wine list and $30 corkage if you bring your own.

    Seated in one of the outdoor cabanas, we were immediately drawn to the lights as we were gazing down El Paseo. The food was decent but the service from our waitress, Janet, was over the top, even though she was training someone new. Went out of the way to make our anniversary’s a special memory!
