    Food quality was ok. Service was fair. We were not told about specials (over heard different server telling their table), was not offered bread for table (had to ask after seeing other tables), Caesar salads came out with entrees (Manager did comp salads since it appeared that we were not happy), never asked for seconds on drinks while eating our meal. Expected more with price point on a slow night.

    Out server tried very hard to be accommodating, but they were clearly short staffed, so service was slow. The food was not seasoned well or enough and was bland.

    We had a good time and the service and food was good. A friend in our party had to order another item due to the type of steak they ordered.

    We enjoyed our food but everything was lukewarm at best. Nothing wrong with the food we ate but also nothing memorable to make us want to return. The outdoor seating is nice being right on the water.
