Food was good. But the service wasn’t as good. My server was hardly ever to be found. Then someone in my group didn’t get their food until it was time to go.

We enjoyed the Parrot Islw Coconut Shrimp & the Bacon m-wrapped Scallops as an appetizer & they were spot on delicious! My favorite was the Crab your way. I had the simple steamed Crab legs with drawn butter & enjoyed the true flavor. The highlight of the dinner was the “Snow Globe Sangria!” It is a perfect blend on of Christmas in a glass! Try just one!!!
