    Server was excellent, oysters and Brussels sprouts app were perfect, main courses ( salmon, bronzing, haddock and mahi mahi) super, fresh and expertly prepared and presented. Cocktails were creative—a little sweet, but yum. Tiramisu was done, coffee was delish. Thank you for a memorable meal— we’ll be back often!!!!

    When the restaurant is full it is a little too noisy, but otherwise a most excellent venue with superb dining.

    Had the octopus and clam chowder to start both were excellent. Chicken under a brick and halibut with lobster socutash the gnocchi in the socutash was a nice little surprise. Overall really good, a little loud for my liking.

    The three of us had a wonderful dinner, beverages were delicious, mains were good. My mother had the lemoncello shrimp and she said it was really good, but she didn’t taste very much lemon flavor if at all. That would be my only negative from the whole night. I will definitely be back!
