    I love the food but the noise level is excessive. The service is very good and so are the cocktails!

    This review sounds harsher than I intend it to. They tried hard, but it seems they don't know what they want to be. High end or local seafood gathering place. The pricing didn't match the feel of the place. Waitress was very attentive and helpful.

    Not completely happy. Service was slow, took a long time to get drinks and place order. Soups were really, really peppery. The fish sandwich was good, the seafood papperalla was okay, the walleye, the risotto and the halibut were NOT good. We had to send the walleye back because it was cold and then the waitress said they would ‘warm it’! We know they put it in the microwave…. Very disappointing

    Food was amazing! Staff deserve better than t shirts and leggings. Exterior under construction, but will better the experience down the road. Highly recommend.

    Can’t believe it’s taken us so long to find this gem. Food choices were expansive. Food, service and ambience was excellent. Once the construction is complete, the restaurant and surrounding area will be even more amazing.
