    Wonderful place for anniversary meal. All service people were very nice and helpful and knew the menus well. Seating was close to others but felt private enough. Drinks were amazing and the food was excellent. My husband had the fish and chips and I had the off-menu sea bass with forbidden rice and we were both very happy with our choices. The only improvements I would suggest is (1) offer vegetables with the meals - it seems incomplete without some and the prices are high enough that some could be included; and (2) the people beside us had a "tower" of seafood from the raw bar which looked great but did not come with crackers or anything else to eat with the seafood. Balance is important! We appreciated the complimentary champagne given to us to celebrate our anniversary - it was very nice and a great finishing touch. We will be back to celebrate more special occasions or maybe just to have a drink at the bar - the cocktails were the highlight of the meal.

    We have eaten here theee times in the last two months. Food is great and the table service is very good. But front desk staff could be more friendly, especially to repeat customers.
