    Really good experience. Went at 5 pm on Valentine’s Day and it was not crowded at all. So, it was quiet and we got lots of service attention. Drinks were good and food was outstanding. Menu was reduced for the holiday, as you would expect. But, still had several choices in varying price ranges. It was much more crowded by the time we left.

    Valentines Day lunch for two. Food was excellent and the service (Spiro - our culinary guide) was exceptional. We had Calamari for an appetizer Then, we each had a salad…one lobster and the other tenderloin. Dessert - was cheesecake. We made future reservation for dinner before we left. Very happy.
