   Island Hideaway is already my go-to spot for special occasions, but oh my they have really stepped up for the Christmas holiday with VERY creative decorating that's subtle yet gorgeous & indulgent at the same time: the entire ceiling above the bar is a solid cover of classic red & gold ball ornaments, there are large well-done bows here & there around window area, and on the tables there are small clear glass vase/bowls with perfectly detailed yet again simple/classic miniature tree and snow inside. SO MUCH JOY! And as always, engaging yet efficient & professional service AND outstanding food, everything highest quality, love the chef's close attention to preparation and creative yet tempered seasoning (I had the seafood canneloni (sp?) this time, and chose the alfredo sauce which is seriously the best alfredo sauce I've ever had, so rich yet still delicate that its worth the indulgence. Also started with the crab-stuffed mushrooms (special appetizer of the evening) which was also excellent. Will be back in January --and hoping the the chef's chicken pot pie will be on the winter menu ;)

   The restaurant is busy which is good. Our table was too close to another table and the person seated near the “aisle’ continually had her chair kicked by staff and patrons trying to get between her and the person behind her. That does not make for a pleasant dining experience. The noise level was very high so everyone had to raise their voices to be heard. Having music playing at that time was pointless and added to the noise level. I had a side salad which was boring as not much on it but lettuce and a few cucumbers. The blue cheese dressing was bland as well with few chucks of cheese. The fish tacos were good with a generous portion of fish. My husband had the lasagna which was good and a generous portion. The server may have checked on us once and we had to ask to have our water glasses filled.

   They changed 2 entrees on the menu and ran out of deserts. Other than that, the food and service were good.

    We went for lunch at a late hour, so it was nice and quiet, and we were seated in a corner near the water! Absolutely beautiful! The staff was so cordial, polite, friendly, engaging in conversation! They were really able to explain the menu any questions that we had, and took care to note our food allergies. This is definitely a place that we will return to! We highly recommend the steak bites, the crab soup- crab loaded & gorgeous creamy! We are certain you will love any dessert that you get! Our party had three and we ate them all!
