    We made a special trip just so we could introduce this restaurant to our son. We have been coming for years and yet again it hit a home run. It was truly a beautiful experience.

    The fish dishes were superb and my husbands lactose intolerance was accommodated without compromise to the dish. I recommend this restaurant for special occasions.
