    Price took such good care to be sure we had everything we wanted. The food was great! Such a special place for us! The fruits de mer was very good and so were the dressed oysters and of course the mussels and clams sauce was out of this world!!! The snapper and grits was also superb!! Cocktails not quite as snazzy as they used to be. Not super cold as a good shaken or stirred drink should be. No frost! Loved the little lime twirl on my cosmo though! But we still had a fabulous time!! ! Thank you!!!!

    Lyle and Jake were very accommodating and we enjoyed everything we ordered, mixed marinated olives, Hongos a la plancha (mushroom medley), and La Smashburgesa. Jake paced our meal well and even sent a sweet surprise at the end.
