Sea Grill is making waves as the new restaurant on the block within the Queen City Quarter complex. From the minute we walked in, to the time we left, it was an amazing experience. We remember the interior of the building from the days of being BlackFinn and it was totally transformed. The decor is absolutely beautiful (even in the bathrooms) and the food experience tops the amazing ambiance. We had two cocktails, two appetizers, a sushi roll, two entrees and a dessert and they were all served to perfection. The service was also outstanding. I will be going back and trying other menu items!

Five of us had dinner here for my parents anniversary. Started with a Coquito that was on their drink menu, this tasted like the one I had back in Puerto Rico, very authentic. We had the Paella and the Asada experience, both were delicious. Paella had fresh ingredients well seasoned and the Asada steaks were tender and cooked perfectly. I would highly recommend for any special occasion.
