    I was a bit shocked by the service provided. First, this was a holiday so in anticipation, one would think it would be "staffed up". Second, there were only 5 tables with customers, in addition to bar clients. After being informed we could only dine off of the buffet, we were given an option when making the reservation, we were escorted to our table. We sat for 15 minutes without recognition from anyone. I got up and had to stop servers walking around twice and was finally informed our server was in the bathroom! Really! Someone did finally decide to take over our table. I would choose NOT to return based on service alone!

    My family and I (party of 6 ) came for their Easter buffet and it was incredible !! The specialty drink too I ordered was a fun Easter play on a Bloody Mary and called it a Bunny Mary with tequila and carrot juice SO YUM! Worth every penny with what was offered. The server was very attentive to my wild family (THANK YOU KEVIN!) The buffet was amazing too with all the selections. We will be back!!

    We will never return after the rude & incompetent treatment/service we received. We have the host & waitress every chance and they just couldn’t handle it. Terrible experience all around.

    My all time fave place. Even if there is a hiccup they manage it with perfection. And can’t beat the view whether the ocean or fireside!

    Went for the DJ Sunday brunch. It was very low energy and an older crowd. It Was very chill and a totally different vibe than expected when you hear Dj brunch. Service was great but the food was basic if that. Maybe in the summer the crowd will be more fun and the chefs will try a little harder to give better tasting food.

    Food was average and service standard. I would bet the restaurant banks on their vibe and ambiance to stay in business. All three of us thought our food was good but nothing to write home about.
