Great food whatever you get. Our server Jessica…..aka Alexa….she says she has been called that a lot..oops, was fantastic. A bit loud so hopefully you get a table not near the bar which they fortunately accommodated us with. The beer cheese soup was superb. The lobster linguini and lobster ravioli were our entrees and tasted delightful. Split an ice cream sundae that cooled our palates and tasted fantastic.
