   I RARELY post a review unless the experience was fabulous or awful. Awful was the case here. It started when we arrived and gave our name for an 8 pm reservation. We were told our table was "being cleaned off". After waiting about 10 minutes and seeing 2 other parties seated who came after us, I went back to the desk. They asked for my name again and clearly did not remember seeing us the first time. We then waited 5 minutes before a server even approached. Drinks (2 cocktails) were fair at best. My NA beer came in a can and no glass was brought to pour it into. The smoked fish dip and salmon with crispy skin were good but not great. The fish and chips and the tuna tartar were fair. The desserts were really poor - tasteless really. For $268 for 4 of us, it was not a good value because of the fair service, OK to poor food and rude reception. We would not go back. Beautiful view though.

   made an 11am reservation for Easter Sunday assuming there would be a brunch menu. We have enjoyed brunch there before. We were surprised to learn that there is no longer a brunch menu. We were OK with that. However - the food was ho hum. The cream of asparagus soup was supposed to be served with foccicia croutons and nasturtium flowers. No garnish showed up at all except for a cellophane wrapped package of crackers. Tuna Poke was served over rice that was for sure cooked the day before. Tasteless offering that could have been much better. We have been here many times before and always enjoyed our meal - this one was ho hum at best

   I put in my reservation that it was our anniversary. No one acknowledged that. We had a good meal. We told our server it was our anniversary and she took our picture. We ordered dessert and paid for it. First time for that for an anniversary. It felt like any other day which was very disappointing. We did see a beautiful sunset.

   The restaurant is beautiful, the staff is friendly. We ordered fried calamari, it was flavorful and a good portion but the texture was a bit chewy. We also had the fish and chips and it is on the top 3 of best fish and chips I've ever had. The crunch was fantastic the batter was perfect and the sauces paired well with the dish. It would have been first place with just a pinch more of salt and pepper. The fries were perfect. We also had the sangria pitcher "ring around the rose" 10 out of 10.

   I feel food is overpriced in terms of quantity and quality. The rest is good
