   Seafood tower for two was delicious, oysters were perfectly briny. Crab Louie was surprising to see but had great flavor. My son and I enjoyed sharing the sea bass and filet medallions both cooked perfectly and seasoned well. We splurged and added the fregola “Mac and cheese” and were blown away by how creamy and delicious it was. We brought the bolognese home for my husband and he enjoyed it immensely. Sad they ran out of the bourbon blueberry crème brûlée but the molten brownie ended the meal perfectly.

   Our first time here. Appetizer and cocktails were fantastic. Main entrees were both very good - not the best I’ve ever had but very enjoyable and we both cleaned out plates. The after dinner Latte was insanely good. Service was phenomenal. Atmosphere was fun/ pleasant however the chairs with the wooden backs are really uncomfortable. Can’t wait to go back once the patio opens, want to try some of those happy hour plates !

   What a great meal! Artichoke appetizer was amazing. I had the beef medallions. Absolutely delicious. My son had the tuna and cleaned his plate. We shared the brownie for dessert with extra ice cream! 10/10!!!

   Always a fantastic experience! This is my once a week favorite spot to dine. They treat you like family. Alex the manager, Thomas and the other wait staff, amazing bartenders like Elaine, Jimmy and Joe are simply the best! Oh wait- let us not forget the drinks and food- never disappoint! It a must go! I can’t wait til the May Patio Party!

   Went for Easter which is always a gamble. Put party of 5 at a table for 4 and on top of other guests. They did move us once another table opened up which was very appreciated. All of our food came out warm at best. One ham dinner was so tough, it could barely be cut. Lobster Benedict was pedestrian at a not-so pedestrian price of $39. Iron Gate Cafe is 100 times better at a fraction of the cost. Was expecting so much more from this high-end restaurant in a beautiful space.

   The food was great. The service was excellent. The interior was very bright, open and not too noisy. The prices seemed high. But everything is expensive these days.

   As usual, an outstanding meal in an outstanding setting. The place was very busy with only one server and one bartender. They were amazing and deserve kudos but staffing levels should be addressed.

    Sea Smoke Grill is an excellent restaurant. I had the sea bass - delicious! Another member of my party had the wage beef and it was also excellent! This is mt 2nd time eating there and had a wonderful meal each time. My only recommendation is to have more menu choices and more gluten free choices.
