    It was definitely fun and high energy for a Sunday brunch spot. We were a party of 4, everyone enjoyed their dishes. I had the bottomless brunch which has alot of different tasty options. The honey jerk wings sauce was great - the chicken drumsticks were juicy but the flats were a bit dried out. I would recommend it to friends.

    Celebrating our friend's birthday and the dining experience was fabulous. The service was professional and thoughtful. All the appetizers, octopus, burrata with heirloom tomatoes, and endive salad were exceptional. The seafood entrees were absolutely delicious. My scallops, requested blackened, came out cooked to perfection. The pasta special with mixed seafood was wonderfully spicy with tender shellfish. Branzino and halibut entrees were beautifully presented and well seasoned. Coffee and dessert rounded out a memorable dinner. Thank you, Chris, Jessica and staff for all you do to make a celebration spectacular.
