If you come here and your food is poor expect some interesting excuses. The fried shrimp was very rubbery where I couldn’t eat it. So the waitress and manager said it’s because it’s a large shrimp. Not that it’s either overcooked or rancid which is generally the reasons for rubbery shrimp. Also my mother’s sea bass had absolutely no taste to it. My scallops were decent so I guess that’s good. I would never return here as this place doesn’t take any criticism on its food. It’s probably why I was able to make a reservation on a Saturday ight last minute.

Excellent dining experience. Fish is fresh and well prepared. Portions are large. Service excellent. Highly recommend. Patio ambience is great, but it was too hot and humid so we ate inside. Just wish the inside seating was a bit less noisy. We were a party of 4 and plan to return often.

The shrimp scampi was excellent. The shrimp salad was very fresh and delicious jumbo shrimp. The fish was plentiful and very good. The service was not good. It took the server 20 minutes to bring bread. You always had to ask for more drinks. He never came and asked if everything was ok once we received our meal. It was a holiday weekend so Saturday night was a bit slow that he could of been a much better server and more attentive to our table of four.

We felt service was more concentrated on tables outdoor and was not around often. Biggest complaint after eating here many times - we were all extremely thirsty the rest of the night after we got home. Felt there was too much salt in the food.

Worst experience ever at a restaurant we have been to many times. Waiter was given too many tables, but did his best & we can’t fault him. There were 9 of us and 5 of our meals were barely warm. For the high prices the food should be warm and just can not express how disappointed we were. It was a first time experience for the other 7 people we were with & all said they would never return.
