    The view was excellent and the service was top notch! The food was just okay. I had the ribeye and my wife had the filet, both cooked medium rare. Both were very underseasoned and tough. Definitely not worthy of the hefty price tag.

    Thanks to JB Hooks for a wonderful Anniversary Dinner. The food was absolutely amazing with some even left to take home! Our server was wonderful and it was a nice touch for management to stop by our table to check on us and wish us a Happy Anniversary. We will be returning for all of our special occasions!

    Two of the 4 of us ordered the the Mahi-Mahi special and while the flavor was good, both entrees were way over cooked and rubbery. The salmon my wife ordered was cooked perfectly and tasted great. Cocktails were average, which is disappointing, because we have had excellent drinks there in the past. It is expensive for average. We may go back and if we do, I’m having the salmon.

    Excellent as always! We took our brother-in-law and his wife there for his birthday. Food was amazing! The Cornish game hen was so delicious! My husband raved about the chicken picatta. My BIL loved the pork chop. Service was excellent (Thanks Olivia!) and we always love sharing our favorite place with friends and family!
