Great! Mentioning birthday in the reservation made the table extra special (ribbon, menu). Seated early. Perfect location across from City Park during Celebration in the Oaks.

We were advised the seafood dishes are great and yes so true! I loved the drum (daily special) and my spouse love the redfish on the half shell. We had great cocktails (sidecar) and wine list is very good. Ambience was lively - beautiful city park scenery out the windows. The bar is so nice - would love to come back to hang out there! Our serve Sandy was so friendly and knowledgeable!

It’s was really busy and our food was late coming to the table. Everything was really good when we got it. Pretty expensive for dinner but we knew that when we made reservations.
