Really good food and our server, Travis, was very personable and efficient. The crab cakes were wonderful as well as the lamb shanks and steak fries. A bit pricey but it's a big and gorgeous resort, so to be expected.

Every thing was great, the only reason I gave it a 4 star for ambiance was because the corner we were sat in was dark, we had to use the flashlights on our phones to read the menu. It did not ruin or spoil the experience.

Our service was excellent. The food on the other hand, was not. We walked in to an overwhelming smell of fish, shortly followed by a wave of ?curry vs celery salt? that made eating pretty much anything nauseating. For an over $200 tab for 3, we left with nothing good to say about anything that we ate

Food and service were excellent! The wait staff paid close attention to our table. Three of the four in our party had the salmon. The other had scallops. We all felt the food was superb. Will dine there again when in the area.
