    Beautiful restaurant with great service. Our food was okay—husband’s salad was drowning in dressing and my mushroom risotto was too salty. I had the crab/corn chowder and it was delicious and my husband’s tenderloin was very good. We will give this restaurant another try for sure just ask for less dressing and salt.

    The food and atmosphere were fabulous, and the wait staff were exceptional! Our server, Julia, was very attentive and engaging! Could not be more pleased. Our chocolate/fruit sampler for our anniversary was very thoughtful…should have taken a photo of the ‘Happy Anniversary’ chocolate.
