Usually, the food experience is very good, except for today. The food was very bland tasting. I had the lobster risotto, and the risotto tasted of absolutely nothing. The only thing that had any taste were the chunks of lobster. I was very disappointed.

I expected excellence all around. Our seating was terrible. They sat us right next to the waiters station, on top of being in the walkway constantly being bumped by waiters going back and forward. Highly annoying. The food was subpar. I’ve been to a lesser prices venue and received better food. To have paid $300 for 2 people I expected way better. Our waiter was great. I wouldn’t recommend or return.

This is typically our favorite go to restaurant for special occasions. We recognize that it is a noisy restaurant, so are generally not bothered by that. However, yesterday our fish was over cooked and the salad brought to our table at the same time as the entrée. The lobster mash was at best lukewarm. All in all it was a bit disappointing. But still I had a wonderful Mother’s Day.

I really enjoy going to eat at this place. The ambiance is always good and quite. We were running late for our reservation and it was close to the kitchen closing.. We spoke to the manager (Tony) and he assured us if we showed up we would have a table waiting for us.. Sure enough we got there not only did he have the table, but he had the waiter as well.. Need to give a huge thumbs up to Tony and his incredible people skills Thank you again

Food is always terrific. Service was great. I ordered my favorite filet, lobster mashed potatoes, and shared the warm spinach salad. My wife had the fried lobster tail, another go-to favorite. We love the food here but the noise from the Happy Hour side can be a little overwhelming if you’re trying to have a quiet date.

No taste to the food. Desert was 5/10. Service was ok. Even though we had a reservation, our table was not ready for 30, so we sat outside to get our dinner moving. Small portions for the seafood tower for 4 people.

We went there again for the birthday of my daughter. The sole meunière and the scallops were amazing. The mojito was not exceptional. We took also sides as mashed potatoes with lobster: very good, creamed spinaches and sprouts. Amazing. The service was good. The restaurant after 8:00 pm was too noisy. Very expensive. But will come back.

It is not the first time I eat in this restaurant, and I like it. But it's the first time I saw a restaurant refuse to allow a service dog with is official card inside! I have never seen a girl at the reception so unpleasant. Fortunately, a waitress allowed us to have lunch inside with our dog otherwise we were leaving. Be sure that this restaurant is not friendly dog!!

The food and service was fine - except - the butter for the lobster was not . I think it left the lobster not as tasty as it should have been. Being from New England and lobster being my favorite food, which I eat more than occasionally, I was disappointed that the drawn butter did not complement the lobster. It was thin and light. I love your restaurant, the ambiance and service. Please give us a butter that gives the perfectly steamed lobster its maximum taste.

We went to have a nice steak while in town and this place was recommended by a local friend. We went early and on a Sunday so there was no issue getting a table and one on the patio. Our server was really nice and had a great balance of chit chat and service. All the recommendations were on point and food was so flavorful.
