    My friends and I had a leisurely weekday lunch at an inside table with a view of the Intracoastal. Our server, Breezy, was attentive and helpful. The ambiance and new decor was very nice. The food was well prepared and tasty (we all had salads), with a couple of exceptions; the peanut dressing for the Thai Chicken salad was too spicy, the beets on the Beet salad were fairly tasteless and it was skimpy on the feta cheese but the Burrata salad was deemed excellent. The prices have increased significantly since I was last there before the remodel and they now add a mandatory 20% service charge to the bill, which they mentioned when we were first seated. I would go back and try some other dishes in the future.

    Ambience is nice, nice scenery of intracoastal. Our waitress Olivia was great. Food was overpriced but was overall good. Had a reservation and still had to wait 15mins to be seated. Hostess took us to our table and instead of being greeted with a welcome she reminded us that 20% gratuity was automatically added. No problem with the automatic gratuity but found it extremely tacky.

    Great experience. We ordered the beef filae to be cooked medium rare but it came well done. Not a big deal. Super place to eat, we will be back. Mason wrote down medium rare but directions got loss somewhere??
