    On our anniversary, which was noted in our reservation, the staff failed to acknowledge it. My wife commenced with the Caramelized Sea Scallops, which was delectable. I opted for the Lump Crab Bisque, which was satisfactory. For my entree, I ordered the Snapper Ponchartrain, which was lacking in flavor and excessively doused with hollandaise. For dessert, my wife enjoyed the Crème Brûlée, which was pleasant. Overall, the atmosphere was pleasant, but the quality of the food was disappointing.

    Food was just so-so. I was told they were out of the Crab Napoleon but then I saw it being served later to another table. My husband’s cat fish was dry and not tasty. There was no kids menu - which I didn’t realize and we had our 9 year old grandson with us. It was so noisy it was hard to hear our waitress when ordering or she asked us questions.

    Wonderful, personable service. The menu is exciting and the dishes are well executed. They also accommodated our children with a chicken finger dinner. Oooh and don’t miss the delicious cocktails.
