    Celebrating a fun girls night out with 3 March birthdays. We all enjoyed a delicious meal, beginning with our appetizers…delicious mussels, calamari & crab cakes. Our entrees were so yummy, the salmon with the sweet potato’s & asparagus was amazing! The white filet fish was a very generous portion and cooked to perfection. Our waiter, Drake was so pleasant and attentive. We can’t wait to go back!

    Despite reserving an “standard indoor” table, we were sat in the extended dining room heated by blazing overhead heat lamps. Imagine eating dinner in a room that feels like a hot yoga studio. We ordered a sushi roll as an appetizer, it never came, we were told the sushi station was slammed. This was surprising as the restaurant appeared to be at 50% capacity with several open tables. The caesar salad was watery & had no flavor, sangria was very good & our server was sweet. I always have high hopes for this restaurant but the experience is consistently disappointing. Have dinner somewhere else but stop in for a night cap, the cocktails are well crafted.

    Really great restaurant! The patio is well heated, though chilly by the windows in winter. Great food- I got the scallops, my husband got the filet! Both were great! Great for date night
