We enjoyed everything! Staff members were all so friendly and helpful from the valet to the hostess, servers and chef! The food was top notch - delicious and beautifully presented. The ambiance was very nice as we watched the sunset over Simpson Bay and the lights come on all around us both inside and outside the restaurant. Definitely recommend and we would come back if we return to the island in the future.
