    Lovely afternoon lunch with friends. Had a large round table outside which was shaded by umbrellas. Service was great. Everyone enjoyed the food they ordered with the exception of a couple of salads that were somewhat disappointing.

    If you are interested in good Sushi I’d reconsider Mitch’s - Mitch’s sushi used to be excellent but it’s not as good sadly. I feel that since Covid many restaurants have struggled to keep the same quality.

    This is a fantastic place. From the moment you walk through the front door, you feel as if you're visiting a friend's home. Everyone is so welcoming and they constantly check on your well being. The only thing better than the ambience is the food. I know that it's a seafood restaurant, but they offer meat and poultry as well. Everything is delicious.

    The food at Mitch’s is always outstanding. They are starting to price themselves a little too high for us even in these inflationary times. New server was a little pushy but she was nice and will learn over time.

    Fantastic food. Great atmosphere with an incredible staff. Our group ordered sushi, filet mignon and the special which was crab baked prawns - all were outstanding. Highly recommend. Save room for the balloon chocolate dessert and its spectacle or the apple a la mode dessert which I liked even better.
