   Waste of $$$$… hard to find stone crab besides Joes & they had them here, I wish I took a picture of how they were served! 4 pieces on an empty plate with 2 lemons, they forgot the butter & dressing!!!! He brought the butter after we had started eating it…, drinks were bad, cosmo was made wrong (how is that possible!). Appetizers were cold, salty grilled octopus, main course was ok, NY strip was good cause they did it in the open grill, o h& the risotto looked & tasted like mashed potatoes!!! An Italian would have thrown it over the deck if they had it!!!

   Let me start by saying I've been here several times and always had a positive experience. I was disappointed tonight in the service we received due to our orders not being correct when brought out. Our waiter never came back around to see if we wanted another round of drinks until we were done with our meals. We also had a shrimp scambi order, and the shrimp were cold. Our waiter definitely seemed overwhelmed tonight. I will give it another try next time I'm here visiting, but I was definitely disappointed this visit based on my past experiences.

   Our experience was mixed. Our server was not having a good day. He forgot parts of our dinners, waved us off when we tried to tell him we didn’t get salads, spilled our cocktails all around the table and didn’t even acknowledge it. So odd. Our food was great though and they took off on the bill for the poor service. Just an odd experience.

   We took some friends for an early dinner. We were seated immediately on the patio. Food and service were excellent! Highly recommend the “early bird “ specials! All entries included salads and dessert! Thank you for a wonderful dinning experience! Ask for Ella as your waiter, she was wonderful!

   Always good food. Great value. We were in a rush to eat since we were going to a concert and waiter worked extra hard to get us our drinks and food timely.

   Came in shortly after open for their early bird special. Server was attentive however not really friendly. Ordered my steak medium, it came out extremely rare. When it was sent back to me, it looked like someone chopped it into several pieces and cooked it beyond well. The shrimp was fine. No choice in the dessert, neither my mother or I drink coffee so we didn’t care for the tiramisu so we didn’t even eat the dessert. Definitely won’t be going back.

   while the table service was excellent, the food staff started to not replace food options as they were empty around 1:00. Food choices should remain as long as the brunch option is available. However, that did not change my opinion that the brunch was excellent .

   We had a reservation for Sunday brunch at 12:45. We were seated and served by 1:15. After that the server was great however she was very busy as place seemed to be short staffed. We were the latest seating for the brunch and they ran out of key menu items such as salmon and did not replenish. All the food was good and I still recommend this restaurant however avoid a seating after 12.
