    The menu has become extremely limited and they were out of certain items at the beginning of diner service hours. Use to be one of our favorite places to dine. We will not be returning. Very disappointing.

    The food is excellent, service excellent, but if you end up outside on the left side, the music is very very loud.

    Overall, I had a good dining experience. The recommended entrée of Jerk Salmon was good but lacked the jerk flavor I was expecting. The service was good nice some waiting at the end of the meal for our check.
