    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.

    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.

    Everyone and I mean everyone was friendly , cordial and accommodating. I called three times extending my grace period due to weather , traffic and other issues. I wish I got his name , the person who picked up the phone told me not to worry . I get seated telling the host and server I have 40 minutes to eat and on to see the soccer game . Everything came together . Server even gave me the check early so I can go on my way !! This is remarkable and will be back !!!
