    Party of six enjoyed a relaxed meal celebrating two birthdays. Food was excellent and variety of choices includes great options for vegetarian diet. Steaks were perfect. Enjoyed king crab appetizer and a unique zucchini one. Our server was fantastic- took time to explain menu options, took some photos for us and right level of attention. (Erin M).
