    Our meal was one of the best that my wife and I have ever had. The salad was delicious; the main course was terrific as well. Beautiful surroundings. We can't wait to go back!

    The food was fantastic and our service was very good. The quantity of the wine choices was overwhelming as well as overpriced. Drinks were rather expensive too. Definitely only a special occasion spot for me.

    We booked a table for 2 as a birthday date. The seafood was marvelous and the creme brule with the Birthday chocolate cake was outstanding. Our waiter Eddie was very attentive and did a wonderful job.
