    Water Grill was excellent. Great service, great drinks, and lots of food to choose from (it was hard to choose only a few dishes). I would recommend taking out of town guests and we will definitely visit again!

    Everything was delicious, from appetizers to cocktails to oysters to dessert and everything in between. The waiter was prompt and respectful to our timeline, but the cocktails took a long time for what seemed to be an only moderately busy day

    Outstanding service from Gabe. Wish we could always have a waiter who is that attentive and knowledgeable. Super helpful and we were never lacking for anything. Crab cakes, oysters and calamari were all delicious. Drinks were fantastic. We will be back.

    Valentines menu with good options. Food was just ok, entree (lobster and filet) was bland. Service a little slow. $430 before tip deserves better. Too many better options out there, and we were just underwhelmed.
