    Everything was wonderful and I especially liked the half portion option on many dishes. The only “complaint I have is I wish there was a little more diversity and choice for the seafood.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience overall, but the placement of our table was a notable drawback. Given that we had a reservation, we expected to be seated in a more desirable area of the dining room.

    Service and ambiance are great. Appetizers and fish entree were excellent. However, the steak was grizzly and chewy. I'd certainly return again.

    The outside patio dining was wonderful; can’t do that in most of the country in December. Food was good, service was exceptional, and views including Christmas lights were great.

    Service was very rush, took away your plates without asking. Utensils were placed all over the table, not properly organized

    Great location, excellent and attentive service. The food was well presented, prepared and tasty (seafood stew, Chilean seabass). Our wine and cocktails didn’t disappoint. And I like the ample free parking in the rear. Highly recommend.
