    Good food in general but expensive in relationship to quality. Non-alcoholic cold drinks good but overly expensive. Wine serving size was miserly and quality of pinot selected, mediocre at best.

    The atmosphere was amazing , the host was nice and respectful. Our server was great , give us enough time to go through the menu, but this time around our sever didn’t really tell us the special , which is fine because he did give us the menu. Server took our Order and all. Appetizer came out , the fried calamari was amazing. It was fresh it was crispy; just perfect. The drinks was so tasteful that I order twice. Lychee Martini and pomegranate lemon drop super yummy. The main course came out, ribeyes steak cook to perfection as we request ; medium rare, but my order was wrong. I order the halibut’s with macadamia nut, instead server brought out something different which I didn’t notice and my fault for not noticing . Took a bite and realize it was salmon ; server brought out second drink and said that was sea bass ; since I already touch the food and took a bite ; said it was okay and my fault for not noticing. I wanted to correct him and said it was actually salmon , but it’s okay ; overall everything is good. I was so looking forwards to the halibut and got salmon instead, I guess I’ll make another reservation for another dinner date. This time around I’ll pay attention to what’s on my plates. Oh and the dessert creme brûlée; another hit. Gotta save room for dessert.

    Our server was Jadin! Our first time with him as our waiter. Jadin was courteous & prompt. Took time to explain the menu. He was attentive to our dining needs. Delivered promptly when asked! It was my husband’s 86th birthday. It was a very pleasant dining atmosphere in addition to our caring waiter, Jadin.

    The service was amazing! The food was beyond superb. We ordered a Filet and Prawns and RibEye with a lobster tail. To top it off we ordered a bottle of Meiome Pinot Noir. Can’t wait to come back!

    Well, we had prompt service, but it was clearly a late 80s soundtrack and we sent back the lobster bisque for tasting off. Well, they didn’t have to. The soup was still left on the receipt I would have wished for a more courteous offer of a partial refund. I also see that the wait staff appear stressed, which transfers to the guests. I wish the service were better as this is our neighborhood bistro.

    The food was absolutely amazing! The fillet mignon was cooked to perfection (medium rare) and melted in my mouth. The lobster was also perfectly cooked and when dipped in the Old Bay butter…excellent! We brought our own bottle of wine and enjoyed a table-side view of the Sacramento River during sunset. Our waiter was wonderful in provided recommendations for starters (crab bisque), which we enjoyed. Our waiter Miguel was a wonderful mix of checking on us, but also allowing us to enjoy our food and conversation.

    My husband and I were disappointed. It was Valentine's Day and we wanted a great dinner. We had to wait over 30 minutes to be seated in spite of having a reservation. Once seated It took over 20 minutes to have our server come by. The ambiance was blan too. Will not be back.

    Parking is terrible unless you opt for valet. Not to mention the over abundance of reserved valet parking spaces compared to general parking. And ADA parking is a joke! Nice job on the remodel but NOT user friendly when it comes to accessibility!!!
    Scott's Seafood on the RiverResponded 5 days ago
    Thanks for the feedback. ADA parking is a priority. If there are no ADA spots at the front of the building, valet will park your ADA placarded car at no charge. All parts of the property are ADA accessible.
