    Front of the House - Patti was off (well desired); however, all levels of expectation were met. WOW! Consistent brand quality across the board. Polite; friendly; and knowledgeable. Referring to a guest by their name - priceless. Immediately establishes you being recognized and appreciated. Wait Staff - Lauren - on her consistent "A" game. Attentive; helpful; engaging; and truly a real down to earth person. Plus she has pens - many pens - competing with Bernadette for Best Pen display. Meal - Maryland crab soup - seasoned; tasty; and visible crab meat. Shrimp cocktail - seasoned and tasty. Solid go to lunch option. Kitchen - turning out one wonderful meal at a time. Point of Service system - please ensure that Destini's name is properly reflected. Parking Lot - still showing a high level of appreciation and attention. Ideally guests will stop parking at the entrance and blocking the drive lane. Seat cushions - recovered - Thank you. Back to The Atlas Restaurant Group standard of care and quality.

    Not a place for a quiet dinner. It took time for food to come out even appetizers. Not a place where I would come back.

    Very expensive but the food we had (non seafood) was good. Menu leans heavily to fish/seafood. Can be loud if large parties are near.
