We were disappointed in the tuna appetizers and the specials. Tuna was over cooked and the special was just ugh. Too much cream sauce, the crab cakes were forgettable and the seasoning on the meal was overwhelming. Our server, on the other hand was awesome! Very attentive and friendly. Knew his job and was very efficient.
