    Loved the festive decorations and sparkling lights on scale with the large space. The appetizer was on our table when we were seated. A pleasant cup of crab bisque was just enough so that we could still have room for our entree. We both ordered the prime rib ( a huge slab each done exactly as requested), fluffy baked potato, and crispy snap peas. Our server was delightful who kept a perfect pace and checked back with us often. Given it was Christmas Eve and both restaurants were packed, the service and staff were amazing, friendly, calm, and well organized. We truly appreciated the holiday, uplifting atmosphere, good food, and excellent service. What a professional, well planned and smooth operation for an impressive number of diners. Thank you!

    Wonderful as always and fabulous to be able to spend Christmas Eve at Vista. The prime rib was delicious and my husband loved the shrimp and crab pasta . Our friend thought the halibut was the best he has ever had . I agree with both of them since those are also two of my favorites. The sunset over the sea with Vistas outdoor Christmas tree acting as a wee beacon of Christmas hope was truly memory making.

    Mom and I really enjoyed our visit to Jocko’s. From the moment we walked in we were greeted with friendly faces. The front door host guided us to our table, mom uses a walker. Our server Jake was very affable and helpful as we ordered our food. The grilled artichoke, salad, filet mignon with all house made dressings and sauces were fantastic. We also appreciated the home style beans,bread and ice cream dessert with chocolate syrup. We really liked the service. Special thank you to Manager Andrew who took good care of us above and beyond like a God-Father. Thanks everybody for a wonderful dining experience. We highly recommend Jocko’s!
