    We were celebrating a birthday and everything was perfect. We had the best server. She was attentive and took time to answer our questions about various drinks. She was very busy and was still able to provide excellent service.

    Excellent food and service as always. Rick H was excellent server, he was very knowledgeable and responsive, but not overbearing. Only food item that was sub-par was the bread. The crust was so hard it was almost inedible. Everything else was done perfectly

    Took my brother in law there for his birthday and we both had steak and king crab legs. My wife had steak and my sister had Tilapia. Everyone was very satisfied. Our server was very attentive and even brought a birthday dessert that we all got to taste. It was an awesome night.

    We had a fabulous dinner with another couple at JB Hooks Saturday night. We made reservations, and they accommodated us right on time. We all had some type of seafood dinners, from King Crab to Stuffed Lobster Tails. Delicious! Of course, Rick, the waiter, was very good and very attentive. Chocolate martinis for dessert were scrumptious. Thank you for a great evening.

    Had a 100 birthday dinner party. Food was amazing, service from our waitress Kelly exceptional and a visit by the owner to our table expressing birthday wishes was appreciated. Even gave a free delicious dessert to my mom for her birthday. On leaving everyone applauded her which made her night. Never get disappointed with food or the service when we dine here. Def a 5 star restaurant!!
