    It was the end of the year and they mostly were mailing it in. They only served outside, it was chilly and they kept the fans inexplicably on which made it uncomfortable. I had the swordfish special which was incredibly salty and totally over-priced. The wasabi Tuna was a good dish. The servers were great but the experience was really different than they usually deliver.

    We had a reservation and were seated in a timely manner. The menu was varied and had good prices. We loved the food and plan to go back next summer.

    Yummy alligator appetizer! Seriously, it tasted like chicken. Loved my entree… shrimp and scallops with pasta in a “Rosa” sauce. DELISH! As always, I look forward to the next time.

    Always happy with our meal and service. Seafood and pasta dishes are all delicious. It is a BYOB which is another plus.
