    It was fine, nothing mind blowing. Lobster risotto bites were the best bite. The salmon was dry but my halibut was perfect. Server was fine, but ended meal awkwardly. I thanked him and he didn’t say thank you, or you’re welcome, or come back and see us again. Just an “ok.” Got the cold shoulder from host stand on the way out as well. I guess spending $300 for a 4-top isn’t enough. Won’t be back.

    Absolutely fabulous service and the food was great! Veggie stew was not great, everything else was incredible, and their ranch dressing is the best I e ever had!

    Excellent experience. Our waitress Lindsey was a doll and so attentive and professional! The crabcake was exceptional and the oyster trio was divine. Tried four different drinks because they were also delicious!

    The mixed grill was fantastic - shrimp, scallops, crab cake, fresh vegetables, sourdough bread. Also ordered the calamari appetizer. Only problem was everything came at once.

    The fish and chips with cod was amazing! The cod was extremely fresh. The crab cakes were delicious and of course, their specialty clam chowder was amazing - nice and creamy. Our waitstaff was fantastic - she had a great personality and very attentive. The view was also lovely as we sat outside.

    It was great, fun watching The Duck Dodge! However, it was rather loud and hard to talk. Food was delicious, service great!
