    Congratulations to Chef John Varanese, GM Dan O'Connell and th entire team for nine years of serving great food on the Ohio River. One of the best dinners I have had. Manager Kim welcomed us at the hostess station and we started with Maker's Mark 46 old fashion with cheese and charcuterie for two, all items were divine. Split a salad and ordered one of the specials - Chilean Sea Bass - for my entre. I like my steaks MR but my fish a little more done and it was done perfectly. Loved the dish with its Japanese sauce on the sticky rice. My wife has a shrimp pasta dish which was as tasty as it was beautiful on th epklate. Enjoyed a bottle of pinot grigio all the way - lovely evening, Brittany is a fantastic server and the managers all scurry around to make sure all is rollin on the River. Can't wait for warmer weather to enjoy the paito dining.

If though I reservation for booth sitting and got a both on one side and table on other - still phenomenal. 10 starts
