    Great water view and bar. We were seated in the sun when we arrived, at it was a very hot 90 degree day. The host offered for us to move under the shade. We had to wait a bit but it was worth the wait!

    Amazing views of you book at sunset. Food was really good, a little pricey but worth the experience.

    We were seated on time, but after 35 minutes, we had only been served water. No drinks, nothing. We left. Waitress was insulted that I asked where my glass of house wine was after 25 minutes.

    I put the waitstaff low but it’s not their fault, for a Thursday in the mid 80s and a holiday it was packed and seemed severely understaffed. Hostess was doing far more than she should be. The location is beautiful, perfect views smells and sounds. Food was ok, the lobster bisque was great but calamari I thought lacked flavor. My daughter loved her salmon, son’s chicken tenders were pretty good and nachos also pretty good.
