    A good experience per usual. I like the night service a little better but the food was fresh and amazing so that’s always good.

    Our first visit here and nearly 15 years. So glad we came. The food was amazing. Even better than we remember! We had the seafood tower, and the small portion was so generous. Oysters were super fresh! Our server, Mia did a wonderful job!

    We were greeted and seated right away. Everything was delicious especially the shrimp tacos and the lobster tacos. Be sure to get extra sauce on both. Definitely one of our “must visit again” restaurants!!

    We were there to celebrate my son‘s 25th birthday. We’ve been there numerous times and the food is mostly good. This meal… was fantastic. Shrimp piccata - done just right. Love the presentation the temperature the flavor. The overall experience was incredible. Thank you for making it a great one! JD
