    In our party of five, two people had the salmon special which was an 8 oz wild Atlantic salmon filet topped with shrimp and crab and a cream sauce, they both said it was awesome. My son had the Grouper supreme and his was also excellent. My Grand daughter had the Chicken Gregory and it was very tasty. Finally I had the Orange Roughy Manhattan which was an 8oz filet with an excellent sun dried tomato cream sauce. All of our salads, soups and sides that came with our entrees were very good. Our waiter Rick was very good!

    Sunday evening dining and seemed to be understaffed as our waiter had 5 tables including a 10 person bachelorette group. So you can imagine the poor waiter, who was exceptional, trying to handle 20 plus customers with very little help. We waited longer than you would expect between courses, had to ask for water to be refilled while we waited etc. We’ve been here many times and had great experiences just not this time.

    Excellent food and service as always. It's expensive, but if you want a high-quality meal and service, this is the place. We love the Tutto-Mare, it's consistently the best anywhere. The price has gone up from $36 a few years ago, to $52 now, which is really expensive for a pasta and seafood dish, but there is a LOT of seafood in it. So we splurge occasionally. 😊

    We came with another couple to celebrate our birthdays. JB Hooks is made for a special night. Everyone at our table enjoyed their meal. Special shout outs for the wedge salad and filet!
