    Our server Tyler was efficient , cordial , and just present enough. We went for brunch and the egg white ricotta pancakes were the best I have ever eaten. The burger my husband had looked outstanding. All this great food and gorgeous, panoramic views of the ocean make this a go to place if you’re down the shore.

    Though it was a busy Christmas Eve, our server, Haley, provided wonderful as did Paul and Arturo. My husband I shared the Beet & Arugula salad and Shrimp Cocktail. The sauce served with the shrimp was fabulous, spicy with a nice kick of horseradish. The salad was lightly dressed with a champagne vinaigrette along with goat cheese…yum. For entrees we ordered roasted pork tenderloin with mustard sauce and shaved Brussels sprouts along with the Braised Sort Rib over garlic mashed potatoes. For dessert we finished with Banana Tart. Food is consistently delicious and inventive.
