The Green Flash serves traditional American fare with a distinct European influence. The kitchen uses only fresh ingredients, including market-fresh fish in all its from scratch dishes. The full bar provides plenty of drink options and the dining rooms and patios provide beautiful views of the water while you eat.

    Food was great, but the server rushed us. Brought our appetizers out with our food. It would have been better if we could have relaxed eating our food.
