    We went for Valentine’s Day with another couple. We were all thrilled with the Brie special appetizer with the pears!! Please add this to the regular menu as it was outstanding. 2 of us had the lobster ravioli special and were blown away with how delicious it was. We both commented that they were far and away the best lobster raviolis we had ever had. The sauce was especially delicious and so different. My husband tried the steak special and loved that as well. The accompaniment vegetable which was a layered ‘something’ which he could not identify was apparently delicious. The last of us had the sole Milanese and this was also loved. As usual the staff was excellent as were the views of the water. Thank you for such a wonderful dining experience!

    Food was amazing. I had the seafood pasta, which comes with scallops and shrimp… cooked to perfection. My girlfriend is not as much of a seafood person, but had the sole Milanese and thought it was amazing. 10/10

    The mussels for the appetizer were absolutely hands down the freshed that we have had. The seafood pasta and whole fish were incredibly tasty and cooked to perfection. It was my wife's birthday as well as Valentine's Day and as such we were warmly greeted by the staff with a signed birthday card as well as a wonderful piece of cake at the conclusion of our meal. The ambiance was very relaxing and scenic as we had a seat overlooking Narragansett bay. It was a perfect evening at the perfect restaurant!! Thank you all!!
