Overpriced for what was delivered. Probably a better bet simply for lunch outside on a warm day.

Food was delicious. We had the oysters, Big eye tuna poke, Shrimp cocktail, Grilled chicken club, and the apple crisp. Everything was well prepared and fresh as can be. Service was good. What can I say an awesome establishment in a beautiful spot with the perfect atmosphere. We will be back in the future.
