Shells in the lobster roll, very ordinary “Far Eastern Salad” that looked as if it came out of a bag at Trader Joe’s. Service person was happy to exchange it for something else: Ricotta Pancakes. Servers are wonderful. Food not so much. Perhaps their dinner is better.

To begin with, the music was so loud you couldn’t speak to anyone at your table, you couldn’t hear the weight staff, and they could not hear you. Secondly, my fish was served uncooked to me. it had a sauce on it with ingredients, not listed on the menu. It ruined our entire meal. After that, it would have been nice to have a full glass of water, but we had to run someone down to actually get the water the same time we were paying the bill. Although they comped the fish which was sent back and not re-ordered it doesn’t replace the overall bad experience.

Been several times. Always have fun! The Art of Sax group that plays brings a great dance vibe. Randall was our last server and he was great! Great place but you will usually want to make a reservation.

Went primarily to hear the band. Excellent performance. Food was underwhelming. Ordered espresso martini couldn’t get that, ordered lavender lemonade, couldn’t get that. Calamari was excellent. Brie ok, not bad. Garlic knots not worth ordering. Chicken Asian salad dressing overpowering. Hamburger ok. Food quality could be improved upon but the server was great (Randell) and entertainment top notch!

The food was excellent, and our server worked very hard at making a memorable experience for us. There is no doubt that the music was a bit on the loud side and therefore resulted in it being very difficult to talk at the table. I would certainly recommend sitting out on the patio on nights. They have music
