    We went here for my birthday. I had the lobster and the dates. The dates were the best I have ever had. The lobster and vegetables were good as well. Our Waiter was very polite as well as the rest of the personnel. The restaurant was clean, romantic and wonderful atmosphere. Thank you for making my birthday special!

    We had a lovely evening there. There were outside AC blowing cool breeze and ceiling fans along with mist made it feel a very pleasant evening to dine outside. Service and food were excellent as usual.

    Soon as we walked in there was strange odor all over but it was too hot to eat outside. Food was served not very hot including clam chowder and presentation was very poor . Key lime pie was a joke , no consistency, flavor and was runny.
