    Considering the high quality of the fish available in the market the Restaurant Menu was pretty lack luster and the two dishes we got were disappointing.

    Not sure what to make of this restaurant. I guess it’s more of a lunch/brunch place than a dinner place, since they close so early. The food was okay.

    The food is good overall, very fresh salmon and tuna. It is just too pricy

    The food was excellent. The service was well intended but inexperienced. Very grateful for their enthusiasm. The furnishings were too sparse. Too bad they are only open until 7 pm.
