Went to dinner with my family for my Birthday. And talk about family? They made us feel so welcome and even surprised me with a Birthday dessert! I have been here before on other trips to SB, but truly felt the love and warmth from the ladies that greeted us and waited on us. Food was amazing as well. Can't wait to go back for another visit. Thank you again.

On a picture-perfect Sunday (today) we enjoyed a lovely lunch with friends. We dined on the sunny patio that overlooks the harbor. Everything about our lunch was wonderful!
