Everything was great, only criticism was as the portion size for the black cod. 6oz and 5 pieces of gnocchi is rather small especially compared to the other entrees

The lettuce for our 3 Caesar salads was brown at the cut edges indicating it may have been old lettuce. The ribeye steaks were delicious along with the lobster rollers. Love the views from the Crow’s Nest.
