    The food was delicious. Ambience was lovely. The only downside was our server. We like to split several dishes so it's nice when the cold appetizers come out, then the warm, etc. Instead, all our food came at the same time. We had to eat the hot items first. We had no room on the table. We were not asked if we needed another drink or anything else. We did order dessert and the check pretty much came at the same time. Not sure if Elena had a date or what but she was certainly rushing us out...and the restaurant was more than half empty because it's off season.

    Misty provided great service; personable, positive, and pleasing personality. Food was very good. Loved the Hawaiian. music, and everyone was very friendly.....the Halibut was terrific and the Wedge Salad was very tasty with the mango blue cheese dressing.

    The food and service were outstanding. I had the Miso-Yaki Chilean Sea Bass and my wife had the Rib Eye Steak. Both meals were excellent.
