Server was outright rude and unpleasant. Annoyed if asked for more butter. Annoyed that I pointed out that entree came out before oysters. Then brought out both at same time and I mentioned the lady who brought it out mentioned that they would remake it and not warm it up. He was upset and snipped “what do I need to do”. I just let it go and accepted it. When my friend asked to pack up her uneaten salad that she tried to cancel (as it also did not come out as an appetizer), along with the one uneaten roll, he was annoyed and threw the bread plate down. I guess he was annoyed that he was planning to clear the bread and she reminded him that she wanted to pack it. This was also on Mother’s Day and we were 4 moms trying to celebrate ourselves. Ruined by our male waiter. Ironic.

Our Waitress was amazing she did not miss a beat! She also made good food recommendations. We got the scallops and octopus. The scallops were so full of flavor. The octopus was unique it was roasted and tender. I had the halibut cheeks the sauce was outstanding. The key lime pie was lacking for me. The key lime pie was too sweet. It needed more key lime flavor. The crust was too thick and tasteless.

We made a reservation a couple weeks out for Mother's Day. We were seated at a table right in front of the kitchen, which was very loud and had high traffic in front of it. Given that we had reservations our expectation was that the table would be in a much better location. The restaurant had open seating in other areas and we asked to be moved. The waitress moved us, but as soon as we sat down, she said we had to move again as the table we were seated at was reserved for a group of 6. Given that we had reservations, this was unsurprisingly aggravating and disappointing. The 3rd location was much better than the first, however our service was a bit slow. Overall food was excellent and our final waiter was good.

Calamari was great! Steak was superb. Oysters were delicious. The chilled spiny lobster was not that great. Wedge salad was yummy.
