    One of our favorite places service was excellent view fabulous. The only complaint I have this time is I always get the beef short ribs. This time they were very, very, very salty too salty The wedge salad was very good. The sourdough rolls were very good mashed potatoes and veggies all good. The chocolate lava cake tasted like preservatives is not very good. I don’t think you make them there. We really like the carrot cake very good.

    We were celebrating our 10 year anniversary with our friends, this was a great place! Let me first say, if you are lucky enough to have Carter as your server, you will absolutely feel like royalty. He was the best part of our experience! THANK YOU, CARTER! The food was delicious! Upon making reservations I reached out to see if they would be able to accommodate our friends who are vegetarian, YES, I know it's a steak and seafood restaurant. I was told the options would be a salad and a side of veggies, to our wonderful surprise and Carter, they were able to get a pasta dish and a flatbread! So if you're like us and have friends who are vegetarians, they have options. The restaurant allows for beautiful views of the ocean, sadly our table was closest to the bar and near the emergency exit, so the sunset we hoped to capture on our anniversary didn't happen. Our friends ordered us a dessert and as I've seen on pictures, the restaurant failed to acknowledge our anniversary on our dessert plate, just a regular plated dessert, which was delicious, but lacked the love behind our day. We specifically made the reservation for our anniversary and either the restaurant didn't see the note or forgot, but if you're coming to celebrate something, it may be wise to remind them once you arrive.

    Great view. Nice staff. Food not great. Burger had bi flavor, shared with server, did nothing about it. Didn’t like how the staff starting closing while we were eating including sweeping floor, turning off jusic, etc.
