    LOVED the lobster roll. Mu husband loved his filet, from Gibsons. Service was outstanding. I think Sarah was our server and she was awesome.

    The timeliness of the courses was not good at all. Food was ok, I expected more for the price. Probably won't come back.

    Great service and ambience! My snapper was delicious! Both of my guests felt flavor was lacking for the swordfish and sea bass.

    Fantastic experience from start to finish. Very hospitable and service oriented. Table had Frog Legs, Crab Cake, Oysters for starters, Clam chowder, then Chicago Cut Steak, Lobster, Dover Sole, Tempura Shrimp Sushi, Crab Mac n Cheese, and finally 1 piece of key lime pie for dessert (big enough for 4 to share) All very tasty, but the Dover Sole was the star. We were visiting from out of town and cannot wait to come back!

    Always perfect with food, service, everything. Manager checked in on us a couple of times as well. We changed tables, added people to our party at the last minute yet they took care of it all with professionalism and warmth. The staff here from managers, servers, bartenders, bussers all top notch. They make you feel like you are a valued customer every time. They are pros. We of course will be back soon.
