    We have been to One Coastal many times and this time we took 2 friends who had never been there. Oh my! What a fabulous experience. They served us all a glass of bubbly. The waiter was spot on wrt food recommendations. A truly enjoyable and memorable meal and evening.

    Chef Matt and his staff continue to set the mark for an outstanding dining experience. Whether at the bar or at a table dining at One Coastal is a bucket list checkoff when visiting the area. Chef Matt strives for excellence and meets milestone after milestone. The James Beard Foundation needs to have him back next year in Chicago for the finals as his talent deserves their recognition!

    As an individual who really pursues and enjoys fine dining, this place was incredible. Unpretentious but the food rivals Michelin rated restaurants, engaging and attentive staff but they managed to do it with just a few folks. I come down to this area about once a month and this place is definitely one of, if not the best spot for dinner.
