Always wonderful, the food is delicious and the wait staff (especially Calvin) is so friendly and professional. Really good tenderloin steak and all the fish dishes are so good, I especially love the corn chowder with shrimp and crab that accompanies the seafood. My husband wishes the wine list included wines from countries other than America as he loves Rioja and Montepulchiano.

Food was very good but wish they would make the fish dishes simpler and not on top of something else . Really camouflaged the fish. More expensive than other restaurants in town.foo needs to be cleaner

There were 4 in our party. Each course was expertly prepared from filet mignon, to Salmon & Ahi Tuna. Our waiter Cal was excellent, very attentive and we were not rushed. Extensive wine list.

The food was very good. Preparations unusual. The only problem I had was with the menu.v Prior to arriving I looked on line at the menu. When we arrived the entrees I was interested in trying were not available. I understand that to all dishes can be prepared but it was a disappointment. It might me a good idea to add a disclaimer to the on line menu stating that not all entrees are available. That would help people being disappointed as I was in not being able to get the venison. Our server Joe was very attentive, but not overly so

This is probably the best restaurant in town. Everything is prepared beautifully and the service is outstanding. When we go to an establishment to celebrate a special occasion this is where we go.
