The restaurant was very busy and could have used a couple more wait staff but the team did a great job and the food was excellent. The view of the waterfront was exceptional and the menus was very broad ranges though the pizza oven was down so we did not try that option. Great place to meet and chat while dining on a nice selection of freshly prepared dishes.
