Thanksgiving dinner was very good; portion sizes more than adequate - more gravy was provided when requested and though it was very busy due to the holiday, service was good.

Great food, great service, fine atmosphere—another great experience. In fact, the branzino I had (smaller serving) was one of the best seafood dishes I’ve had in a long time — We are already booked in for New Year’s Eve,and looking forward to it. Many thanks for a fine Thanksgiving afternoon!
