    Unfortunately due to construction going on in the restaurant my visual view of the ocean was blocked my scaffolding around all windows in the restaurant . I found this extremely disappointing and very upsetting.

    Everything was wonderful. Near the end of our meal, a party with a group of kids were sat behind us and they were loud and obnoxious.

    We were able to make a reservation for this restaurant for a time period in which it was closed. Very embarrassing for a business lunch. Will not return.
