    We celebrated our son’s graduation from naval chaplaincy school here. Everything was wonderful! Our server was so friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious. We had a corner table with a great view of the water. There were quite a few other groups in our area, so the noise level did rise a bit, but we could still have comfortable conversation. At the end of our meal, our server brought a card to our son, signed by the staff, congratulating him on his accomplishment! I definitely recommend The Mooring for any occasion!

    I booked a table for my wife's birthday. The place was very busy, but the staff made us feel very welcome. When we sat at our table there was a happy birthday card signed by all the staff, which was such a great touch to the dinning experience. The staff were amazing and super friendly and they knew that someone at the table had a birthday! When it comes to the cocktails and the food, everything was outstanding and priced at great prices! We would 10/10 visit again and again!
