    Service could have been more attentive but food and drinks were excellent. Valet before we were done for the evening and we had a hard time figuring out how to get our keys/car.

    This location is beautiful. The view of the bay, the boats and bridges was amazing. The food and service left something to be desired. Myself and a friend both ordered the black angus ribeye and they were both very poorly cooked and very under seasoned. The ribeye was overly fatty and clearly hadn’t been rendered enough nor did it have a good sear on the outside. The duck fat fries were incredible and so was dessert. A great spot for appetizers and dessert. Skip the entrees.

    Food, service and decoration are very good. However, the noise level was almost unbearable…

    Have been multiple times and usually love love it! Unfortunately this time was an exception. I specifically requested a table on the water by a window. They failed to accommodate that which was disappointing but it happens. Later when the evening went on they just happened to be able to accommodate that request for a walk in party that had no reservation. Going as far as moving the table by the window for them. This really upset us because they just disregarded our request. Going on with dinner the food was good, started with the wedge salad which was good, nothing too crazy, just a standard wedge. Then we moved onto entrees which were delicious. The steak was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Unfortunately I was without a drink the majority of my meal because the waitress took her time getting my refill, so much so I had to grab another waiter to assist me in getting a refill. Our waitress was nice but definitely not fine dining material. Seems like they lacked on training. The management was okay. The woman manager who first sat us was quite rude but then stopped by our table later to make sure everything was alright. Dessert was amazing, we got the chocolate pot de creme. A nice light dessert. I would recommend for a nice dinner but don’t go in with high standards.

    They allow dogs and they even sit at the table. After saying something to the manager, he argued with it and did nothing about the heath issue. Food was prepared incorrectly and over priced. Not worth the $115 per plate to share with dogs.

    We stayed at this hotel, which was amazing, but dinner was not the best. We were seated outside and thought we’d be in the inside dining room. The waiter barely came to the table, and I had to get up and go to the bar to ask for some things multiple times. Not something I mind, but we just sat there waiting and it was somewhat odd. For the price of the food and drinks it just wasn’t what we expected at all for our anniversary dinner and I wish we went elsewhere

    If not in June, July, August and maybe September early take a pass. Just not set up to handle cool temps and certainly not cold temps. The service was woefully below par for the purported stature of the place. Too bad as it could be great with its location.
