    We were given a tiny table for two, facing two TV screens despite restaurant being almost empty. Food was good but overly expensive. Nice decor but background of constant drumbeat. We wont be back.

    Seafood tower could not have been fresh. Clam chowder was oily with minimal clam. Lobster roll was tiny, also couldn’t have been fresh. I’d easily take my $450 and go anywhere else in cherry creek. This isn’t meant to sound personal, but I couldn’t be talked into coming back.

    Our server was attentive and doing her best but the food was terrible. Our starters of oysters and the tuna tartare on fried rice squares were fine but everything else was horrible. The meat and fish were overcooked. Nothing tasted particularly fresh. We ordered a side of stir fry vegetables that while it cost $18 was a tiny portion of what looked like overcooked vegetables from a frozen bag. It was embarrassing!! Our party of four literally left mad at the restaurant for how bad the food was and considering our bill for a party of 4 was about $500 that was really annoying. The ambiance looks like it belongs in a cruise ship and is not intimate or particularly stylish. All around this place will not last.

    There is a bad smell - not sure if it is sewer or something. Ciopino has great sauce but no crab, even though it was supposed to have that. Pretty scarce amount of seafood for the price. Food was overall just okay. And the smell was unpleasant to say the least. Service on the other hand was friendly, attentive. Just outstanding.

    Fun server. Helped make our girls night a really fun evening. The mushroom pot was a hit and my seared tuna was on point. The other favs around the table was the beef ribs, scallops and the surf and turf crab legs and ribeye filet with the marble cut out. Solid meals all around. Glad cherry creek has another great option. Looking forward to our next visit.
