   We went for a birthday and it couldn't have been more perfect. Everything was amazing, from the hot blue crab dip appetizer to the chocolate marquise for dessert. We had the Grouper with the blue crab crust and the Scallops with asparagus risotto as our main courses. It was absolutely delicious. By far the best dining experience I've had in every aspect. Our server, Allison, was on point too. I'd recommend this restaurant over and over again based on this experience. I only wish I lived closer to make it there regularly.

   The entrance to the building is difficult to find, unremarkable and not well marked. The ambience is meh. It’s clean and uncluttered, but there is no atmosphere; it doesn’t set a mood. Very hotel-like. The personnel were friendly and professional. We were greeted by Robert the manager, who was very welcoming. Our servers, Sandy and assistant, Nancy were also helpful. Sandy gave us recommendations and plenty of time to linger over our wine. She was attentive and service was prompt. The menu was incredible. It’s took us a long time to make selections from the chef’s new spring creations. Every single item sounded delicious with very novel and innovative combinations. We started with a 10-year old sour dough bruschetta with strawberries and burrata which was light but with complex flavors and textures. Next came slightly salty focaccia bread with a voice of tomato and olive oil dipping sauce and a tapenade. The Caesar salad was delicious with a large anchovy and freshly grated Parmesan. We had all 4 of the pastas and they were toothsome and innovative. Sandy suggested vanilla gelato with local honey, olive oil, sea salt and fennel pollen as dessert; it was amazing! We will definitely return, but the chef, staff and food far outshine the setting.

   The service was excellent and the ambiance, great! Even though we don’t eat fish often, the grouper dish was awesome! I would recommend it to anyone… try it.

   We did the pre-fixe menu with wine pairing. Chef had just changed it up for spring/summer and it was absolutely delicious. The presentation and depth of flavors was spot on.

    Grouper was delicious and wonderfully displayed. Desserts were to die for. Lucy our waitress was excellent. Wine was very expensive.
