    The food was good, but not outstanding. The overall ambience was a bit loud for my personal liking. Our server was personable. We were from out of town and had hoped for a bit better overall experience. Decent, good... but not great overall.

    The hummus starter was so full of flavor - feta, olives, tomatoes, peppers, onions, and very tasty hummus. Shrimp and grits had a lot of shrimp, and the whisky chicken was tender and tasty. Best of all - Maria was a fabulous server. She had a lot of great recommendations, let us talk, and provided excellent follow through when asked. Plus, a great view of the water!

    Went here to celebrate my birthday and had a reservation at 5:30 pm which set us up perfectly to watch the stellar sunset view over the Ohio River at our table right by the wall-to-wall windows that help keep the view front-and-center and unobstructed. The food was delicious (ahi tuna appetizer, Seafood Trio/Hot Brown/Fish Tacos/Thai Verasso Salmon Bowl, and complementary birthday cookie sundae were all spectacular). The server was kind, friendly, and very attentive. We will definitely be back when the weather warms up to enjoy the multitudes of outdoor seating options to be even closer to the water next time!

    It was a pleasant experience. My Boo thang loved the step and repeat, as well as the food. Staff were genial in their interaction and service. The food was delicious with reasonable portion size. It’s a great place year round, but the fireplace provided wonderful ambiance.
