    My husband and I had two excellent meals — he had the seafood pasta and I had the salmon with Brussels sprouts — and we absolutely loved every bite. The salmon was served with mashed potatoes and the sprouts with a red wine reduction, which...More

    Great Crab (when they have it)

    They Seemingly DO NOT CARE

    We would rate the Food as mediocre. The Fries are just ridiculously tiny and soggy. The Burger was just OK. The Service was Good. The views are great. I come for the Food and it is over-priced for the level of the Preparations. We think...More

    Noting impressive

    Food is ok, fresh ingredients, but for the price I would expect more. The worst is that they don't respect reservations. The best: the service, friendly people.

    We'll Definitely go Back for More Seafood!

    It was delightful from our window table, watching the sunset with the beautiful bridge in the foreground and seeing fishing boats come into port and unload. Small thing, but I was impressed with the large fabric napkins; nice to have when eating seafood. The waiter...More

    It's on the spendy side in all honesty for what kind of dinner set up it is it's very reasonable , it's for good quality food. You pay for what you get in other words. It's seriously amazing and totally worth every price.
