This was our first time at this new resturant and expectations were high. The entire experience, from the beautiful resturant itself, to every course was outstanding. Our waitress was so knowledgeable and guided us through the evening. Our main courses were the bream and grouper and they both were sublime. We will always come here when staying at the Vinoy. It is a great addition to a fabulous resort
