    We frequent here as we are from Ocean City, but I have to give a shout out to the fabulous Owner/Manager who took care of our party of (11). We had a great table that allowed us all to converse and catch up. I say this which is normally not the case when you dine with 11 people - all our food was outstanding, cooked perfectly and came out of the kitchen hot and delicious. We had great servers who took care of us too, especially on a busy Saturday night. We will continue to recommend and go back a lot during the summer months. Thank You la Finestra!
