    Service was excellent. The halibut was fantastic, especially paired with the recommended local Shady Lane wine. The pork chop was also delicious. Each dish was nicely presented. Wonderful dining experience.

    My husband and I booked the cabanas and we had so much fun pretending we were somewhere warm for spring break! The service was great and the cabana fee was well worth the price. Highly recommend!
