   Salmon was excellent and we had several apps as well. The stand out was deviled eggs, beautifully presented. The struggle was the service. We did not communicate well and we received the exact opposite of our request. No solution or adjustment was offered. In fairness, it was a Sunday night and while there was a great deal of staff, they spent most of their time chatting with each other and did not focus on the patrons. I’m hopeful it is not always that way but alas we will not be returning to find out.

   Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the salmon and deviled eggs, but we're truly sorry the service did not meet expectations. Your experience is not the standard we aim for, and we’re addressing this with our team. We understand your decision not to return, though we genuinely hope you’ll consider giving us another chance in the future to provide the level of service and hospitality we strive for.

   Sasa took great care of us! The food and cocktails were excellent and the service and ambiance were amazing. A great place for a special date, and the rooftop bar was very popular.

   Brunch on Mother’s Day. Deviled eggs were good. Everything else was mediocre or bad. Food took too long (not a full restaurant) and was room temp when served. Crab cake was very fishy and tasted like old crab meat. 20% gratuity included on a table of 4 with no notice. I tipped an extra $10 dollars because our server was nice but I was perturbed that the automatic gratuity was not pointed out. Nice ambiance, although it feels like an airport restaurant. Also, I ordered a Bloody Maria and got a Bloody Mary. Oh well, still glad to have tried it. Hopefully the food will improve to the level they try to portray.

   The food quality was excellent. The property is well maintained. We had to wait around 15 minutes beyond our reservation time to be seated. Once we were seated, it was another bit of a wait before we filled our water glasses and spoke with our server.

   The service was great. We had an appetizer, beat salad and the grouper special. The food was full of flavor and visually appealing. Highly recommend.

    Flavors blend beautifully. If you are accustomed to high-end cuisine, this will still impress.
