    Flies everywhere and 1 vegetable option. If you wanted to substitute it was a $9 up charge for spinach.

    Sand and grit in the clams. The mussels had a ton of grated cheese on them which ruined the dish. Only one out of two of the salads we ordered was good. The waiter dropped the butter for the bread on the floor but never replaced the butter at our table. This was our first visit to this restaurant and it was a bit disappointing.

    Susie was our server and she was fabulous! We were able to enjoy the $29 entrees and they did not disappoint. We enjoyed the bouillabaisse, the shrimp and scallop pasta, the pork loin and the duck. All were extremely delicious and the presentation was impressive. Definitely will be coming back!!

    Our server Susie was excellent! Great food and atmosphere. Was not a fan of the Malbec or Cabernet wines. But after dinner drinks were fabulous.

    We felt the food was average. The sauce for the duck was just OK. The pork chop was overcooked. The Caesar salad had old lettuce. The dressing on the Caesar salad was not a Caesar dressing. The service was very good.

    The food was outstanding especially the rock fish special. So many excellent choices at this restaurant. Happy Hour offers a 20% discount on drinks and some appetizers. The service was okay but a bit spotty at times as items weren’t served at the correct time. Nevertheless, this is an outstanding restaurant for fine dining with tastes so great!

    Arrived and seated promptly for our reservation. Our server Matthew was engaging and energetic. Service was a little slow because the place was packed. My wife had the rockfish and she said it was delicious. I had crab cakes with red potatoes and asparagus. Asparagus was prepared perfectly and crab cakes were meaty with little filler. I finished with a triple berry sorbet which was different but good.
