    Exceptional flavors and huge cocktail menu in addition to large wine selection. We had a nice celebratory dinner, very loud though. Beautiful floor tiles and overall the ambiance was a chill upscale vibe. Loved the pizzas and broccoli rabe especially.

    GRILL 23 NEVER DISAPPOINTS We've tried our fair share of upscale restaurants around town, and I have to say that Grill 23 continues to rise to the top-- particularly in terms of service. It's a well oiled machine that makes for a wonderful night out. And the steak?? Perfection.

    I love Saltie Girl. The service, the food and the ambiance never disappoint. For first time visitors, I highly recommend the seafood tower, the chowder and the cold lobster role. The toasts and appetizers are also delicious. They have outdoor seating in the summer as well.
