We have experienced Cabra several times and it just keeps getting better. The service is fantastic, the atmosphere is wonderful. The views are beautiful. The food, oh the food, is beyond excellent. Nothing we have tried is anything less than great. Would recommend this restaurant all day long.

Burger still undercooked on the second try, but the view, the salt water taffy at the front of the house, and the dipping sauces for the shrimp cocktail balanced things out.

The restaurant was crowded. Yet the noise level was not overpowering. The greeters at the check-in were friendly. Our server, Peter Axelsen was awesome!!! He recommended a mocktail that was the best drink ever. We appreciated the restaurant managers stopping by our table to check on us twice. The food was superb.

You can always count on Gibson’s for a quality steak in a fashionable location. I was dining with a friend you had a short term dietary restriction. Our server, Lee, said they had nothing on the menu to meet it but he promised to check with the kitchen. Lee returned with the item, from a nearby restaurant, so our entire party didn’t have to change locations. Outstanding service!
