    Me recomendaron este Restaurante y me pareció bueno, nada espectacular. Hicimos varias Reservaciones porque éramos una familia de 11, nos pudieron acomodar en la terraza ya que adentro es un lugar pequeño, al principio no sabían cómo acomodarnos pero luego fueron muy atentos. El servicio muy bueno, la comida buena pero nada wow. No pidan refrescos de máquina ya que todos sabían muy mal pero eso en todos los restaurantes de Big Bear. Todos los platillos vienen con una entrada de sopa o ensalada la clam chowder estaba deliciosa y la sopa de tomate igual. Las porciones son enormes así que recomiendo compartir.

    The crab cakes with the mango salsa and the filet with lobster tail, side salad and loaded baked potato were delicious! Very cute and intimate restaurant.
