    Good food and service. How can you go wrong? We had a group of about 25 at lunch, including some children, and they didn't bat an eye. Just good times.

    Great table, great service (thank you Shawn). My wife’s complaint was that her fish was dry, other than that, a very nice experience

    Waited 30 minutes for 2 salads. And then ingredients were missing and not plated. Waiter just had a fake smile on her face the entire experience. Two small salads, two ice teas and an appetizer of 3 half dollar sized crab cakes (I kid you not) warranted, in their minds, a $71 bill!!! Will not return. Outrageously priced and poor service, very small portions, and food nothing to write home about.

    Our last visit the weather was nice enough to eat outside. It is located in a great spot and was fun to people watch. The food was outstanding. My wife had sea bass and I had their chicken marsala (sp?). I have also had their rib eye and short ribs here in the past and both are worth ordering. Our waiter was great and the service provided was just right.

    Great service! Our server really made our event extra special. He was attentive to our needs. He also made the best cocktails! My favorite drink now will be the Jalapeno Mango Margarita. Thank you for taking great care of us. We will definitely be returning.

    Food was great. Service outstanding. We will make this our restaurant of choice for future dining out. The drive from Merced was worth it.
