    We went for Easter brunch so it was busy. Despite that, the service was excellent. Menu items arrived quickly, drinks were refilled, waitress was friendly and attentive. As always, the prices were steep but the atmosphere was great.

    The food was excellent. Our only complaint was the music could have been a little lower.

    Excellent service! Our server Blythe was awesome, best service I’ve ever had at any restaurant. She really made our anniversary feel special. On top of that the food was delicious. We will definitely be back.

    First time eating here. Food was great, and our server was amazing. The noise level in the outdoor dining area is very loud- had to ask the waiter to repeat himself multiple times. But, will certainly eat here again- but probably indoor.

    We celebrated our anniversary with a very nice dinner. We were not hurried, enjoyed sitting outside overlooking the water and enjoyed everything that we ordered. The evening was perfect.

    The food was good, service was decent but when celebrating a known special occasion and it is not addressed it is just disappointing. Will be spending special occasions in the future at places that acknowledge the special event. It was known to the restaurant it was mentioned at check in.
