    Popped in for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We sat outside with a great view and had the charcuterie board which did not disappoint.

    We booked a reservation far in advance and got the best table by far. The patio views is unbeatable. Drinks were great and the food we got some apps pre-dinner and it was fun! Great views, good people watching, and amazing sunset views of the ocean.

    Got the Salmon Salad and the French Toast. This is something we get often and the food consistency has been excellent lately. I think the food has improved over the past year. We really appreciate the food, Great service and most importantly, they turned down the music to a conversation level. I remember a year or so ago, the music was so loud it was giving me a headache. When I ask the receptionist to turn it down, she said, well, this is a bar and she has no authority to turn the music down. It was so loud, I left. Thank goodness that's changed. Now it's our Go-to place. keep up the good work. Even your Arnold Palmer is outstanding.
