    Excellent food, excellent service, varied choices on the menu from sushi to fish entrees to many other types of entrees. John Howie has got a winner here, and its location away from Bellevue Square means they have to meet the demands of those who aren’t in town to just shop. And, they do that with ease. Well done, guys!

    Our waiter, Todd, made good suggestions from the menu. We like the seared Ahi better than the blood orange scallops. Deviled eggs were excellent, as was the hazelnut salad.

    I have the Sable Fish, and it was delicious. It was laid on top for the most delightful, mashed potatoes and served with Green Beens. The Clam chowder was rich and outstanding. My friend had the Steelhead, and he loved it. The food is great, and the restaurant is highly recommended
