    Wonderful happy hour drink choices and tacos. The shrimp tacos were grilled on corn tortillas and very tasty. I also had the lobster bisque. It had actual lobster meat and a rich, creamy bisque flavor. I could drink it, it was so good!! The chicken piccata was a breast but not pounded much, so less ‘crispy’ than some versions. It was still flavorful and cooked nicely. We had a great server. She knew the menu and we truly enjoyed chatting with her. Something for guests to know when requesting patio seating- there were multiple dogs on the patio. All were well-behaved, but for my friends that are nervous around dogs, you’ll want to request an inside table.
