    What a wonderful meal we enjoyed with visiting family Tuesday evening… everything was PERFECT, from the mini wellington starters we ordered, through the salads and soup, steamed lobster, filet mignon, swordfish, lobster ravioli, and lastly, desserts… chocolate torte, cheesecake, and bread pudding (which was the BEST)! Our server Lauren could not have been more accommodating. Her timing was impeccable, from the first time she visited our table to take cocktail orders and inform us of the specials, through the completion of our meal. Very professional and friendly service!

    We sat at the bar and had a great time. The Bloody Mary on the menu was one of the best I’ve had in a while. We got an oysters, chopped salad and shrimp tacos; so so so good. Our bartender was great as well, she was fast and attentive. Clearly a hard worker and I give her props!
