Went for brunch -- fixed meals are very hearty but must items are on the Sides list so you can easily make a delicious custom plate. We had four different dishes and everyone was very pleased! Jazz combo was nice! 1st visit -- WILL be back!

Fantastic dinner. David Shannon rocks. Every morsel was over-the-top delicious and Kendel, our server, couldn't have been more polished, personable, and professional. The Vegan Orgy on Texas Beach was a complete flavor banger as promised, I would sell my soul for another bite of the Swank Bank — the whole thing is obscenely delicious, and the halibut was, of course, to die for. Thank you for a special birthday dinner.
