    This place is truly amazing. I went there with my girlfriend and her daughter tonight. Very well decorated is the first thing to note, the staff ,the level of service were fantastic. To the point, we had a couple appetizers the grand seafood platter. the ladies had a couple drinks. We are excited to go back. This was not a cheap dinner, but the level of food and serve and envious were top notch.

    Service was phenomenal; very friendly and attentive but not overbearing. Steak was undercooked and under seasoned (barely seasoned at all). Lobster tails were rubbery and overcooked.

    Fantastic service! To start, our table ordered the calamari, ceviche, and seafood rolls. The seafood rolls were a fan favorite, but my personal favorite was the ceviche. If you love a dish that perfectly balances flavors and textures, this is the one for you. The fresh scallops serve as a fantastic vessel for the bold, spicy-tangy sauce, which effortlessly coats each bite, while the smooth, earthy flavor of the avocado ties it all together beautifully. For mains, the ahi tuna was the clear standout—absolutely exceptional. The barramundi was served with a variety of delicious sauces, each one worth savoring to the last drop. The salmon was perfectly cooked as well. While I wasn’t a fan of the risotto side dish, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our evening went swimmingly (mind the pun). They made my parents’ anniversary celebration so special—thank you for a wonderful experience!
