    Everything was great except for a very loud table next to us. It ruined our dinner but we will still be back. One of our favorite places.

    We were fortunate to have Josee as our server, as she was outstanding! The PEI oysters with watermelon remoulade and a spicy horseradish cocktail sauce was superb. Both the duck confit and whitefish were cooked to perfection. The wine list appears to be one of the best in the area, so there were many selections to choose from! Will return!

    The manager was incredibly rude and our waitress was very dull. When I asked about the burnt edges of my miso glazed seabass, the manager just stated that it was caramelized. Having had this hundreds of times, this was the most burnt seabass that tasted smoky I have ever had. My broccolini also was charred at the tips.
