    The food and service were really good. The price has gone up some since the last time we visited, though.

    It was Valentines Day and our wedding anniversary - our server Angie was wonderful. She was very attentive and checked on us to ensure we were enjoying our time and food. We had the calamari appetizer, iceberg salad, filet with lobster max, and ended with blueberry cheesecake. Wonderful experience...we will be back in the summer!!!!
