    We were sat immediately for our 6:30 Christmas night reservation. Oyster sampler appetizer was fresh and tasty served with horseradish, mignonette,and cocktail sauce. Generous crab stuffing on grilled shrimp for me and delicious lobster sauce on the lobster stuffed sea bass special for my husband. Beautifully decorated for the holidays with a photo worthy waterfall in their side room. Our server did not rush us and was perfectly attentive. Overall we had a lovely dinner and will definitely be back

    We have driven by this restaurant for a while and finally decided to stop in for a drink and a appetizer on Christmas Eve. We were greeted by friendly Jan who took us to our reserved high top, The menu had been changed to a special limited menu so we decided to have dinner. Had a lobster and burrata appetizer and then lobster ravioli and the salmon. Both were great. While we were eating a husband and wife combo came in and set up for the nightly entertainment. As they walked by us they stopped to introduce themselves and say Merry Christmas. They started playing a mix of Christmas Carols and popular music. Couples were dancing so we did too. The owner came over to say hello as well. We stayed longer for a couple of martinis. Overall a great ;meal, friendly people, and all in all a delightful surprise.
