   This place has gone downhill in the last year or so. The host had attitude when we tried to check in with our reservation. Our server couldn’t have been more than 16 years old and seemed not to know how to be an effective server. The food was just ok. The Mahi Mahi tacos were the smallest I’d ever seen - no more than 3 inches across. The $40 filet is NOT a $40 cut of meat. There are many other places in Old Town that are better than this. Go to those places.

   We went for jazz brunch but ended up leaving because the music was too loud and there weren’t a lot of gluten free options on the menu. We’ll try again sometime for a quiet dinner. We love jazz but not when it’s so loud you can’t even talk to the person you’re sitting next to.

   Food and service were excellent as always. The food is very fresh, with a wide variety of options. The omelette station has everything you might want to include with your eggs including shrimp and fresh crab meat. The fried chicken is amazing. I also enjoyed the raw oysters, peel and eat shrimp, and the smoked salmon. Ask to be seated away from the band as it can get a bit noisy. Overall, it was a great experience and we will return.

   Was overall upset with the quality and taste of the food. The crab cake had way too much filler and garlic parmesan wings came out as basically fried wingettes.

   Reservations at 7. Didn’t get seated until 7:30 and seated in the bar section with a band that and on at 9 where we couldn’t talk or hear anything. What’s the point of reservations?
