We had a table of 4 sat next to us with one toddler and a small 4yr old. Both were loud and the older child was bored and climbing under the table and on the chairs without corrective actions. It was a bit of a letdown to see that behavior.

We asked for salt and pepper because none was on the table and never received it. The salad was great. And our waitress got the order exactly right, down to the exclusions of certain items.

We decided to book this restaurant because of the seafood selections . Very nice ambiance.The service with Sara was outstanding! We started with a nice variety of oysters on the half shell which were very fresh! We shared the caviar and salmon appetizer was terrific with a beautiful presentation ! We then had the wedge salad followed by the Mussels. The broth was delicious with the rustic grilled bread. The cocktails and wine suggestions were great!They presented us with a beautiful Happy Birthday dessert to celebrate was a great final touch! The restaurant is terrific and we will definitely be back!
