    First time at the Point. Very pleased. Creative and tasty cocktails. The donut appetizer with crab was fantastic. All of our entrees were delicious with generous portions. All could have been shared. Steven, our server, was delightful. His timing was very good and recommendations are to be followed. He won’t steer you wrong.

    My group of 5 arrived at 4. Prior to arriving I had 1 extra person and had called the restaurant to add the extra person. The reception was very warm. When I arrived the young lady said you spoke with me!! I said yes! She was warm and very kind. She showed me the options of where to sit and gave me a spot to sit until the rest of my party arrived. The bartender came with menus almost immediately to tell us that we could order from him. (again-warm and friendly). My party ordered drinks and our waiter had a great command of the menu and gave recommendations on choices. We ordered appetizers crab doughnuts, wings and the fish charcuterie which was absolutely amazing!! Next entrees were the chicken, shrimp friend rice with pork belly and chicken, brussels sprouts (so good) and the broccoli and cauliflower. The portions were plentiful as we all left with bags for the next day. Id come back here again for the food and the view!! I parked using the valet which was also PERFECT!

    I really wanted to sit outside but the sulfur smell was just too much. Moved indoor. Enjoyed all of our drinks, a couple of appetizers (wings and mussels were very good). The beer salad was excellent and the cod as well. The service was not good. We waited for utensils, water, and our food for quite some time. It wasn’t even busy!

    Dishes sounded wonderful and the visual appeal was nice. However, the entrees were bland. I will say though, the crab doughnuts were delicious. Our server was also very sweet and informative.
