    I love this place. Always great. From service to food to environment. Been going there since a young child. May it always be there for us.

    Nice restaurant. Waiter was Mike. Very nice and helpful. Enjoyed our dinner and will come back again. We had a table that gave us a direct shot of the water. It was really nice.

    The food was good. We chose to sit outside. However the only table s available were close to the live singer. Also we were celebrating our anniversary and although I added that to the reservation, it apparently wasn't noted.

    The busboy was especially good-he cleared the table after each course, brought me my requested extra sour cream--we were happy to give him a tip--in addition toe the one we gave our server.

    Couldn’t even get into this place, 1 valet worker with 30 cars to park. Waited 40 minutes and left. Love it when a restaurant tries to save on the valet cost....way to go!!
