    Food was 10/10, really good. Only draw back was the higher price range. Service was really good as well, awesome recommendations by our server.

    The food was amazing. The market fish was delicious alongside a roasted vegetable salad. The scenery of Big Sur was a gorgeous coastal beauty. And the waitstaff was superb.

    The atmosphere was cozy and comfortable. No view to speak of because we dined after 6:30 pm and it was foggy and dark outside. There was a loud obnoxious table of six not far away from us and they interfered with all the diners. The restaurant was under staffed but our server was as attentive as possible considering how many guests he was responsible for. The meal choices were varied and our salads and steaks were outstanding. The crème brûlée was creamy and delicious. Rather pricey at about $240.00 for our bill. We would definitely go back!

    Great experience. We celebrated our anniversary there and the staff were so attentive and accommodating. Lovely place for a special occasion or just to have a wonderful meal with a spectacular view.
