Wonderful, fresh, inventive seafood dishes for very enjoyable evening out while traveling. We will definitely be back. Kenny was a very attentive server without excessive hovering. Lots of locals were there for happy hour. Their happy hour offerings must be very good! We were reserved for the dining room, and the service was wonderful even though we were on the early side of dinner. Loved the daily specials that seemed super fresh. Red Snapper tartare was amazing. The ahi tuna and crab cakes entrees were also fantastic. Drinks were well prepared and portioned. The cranberry orange crème brulee had a refreshing flavor and was just the right touch for a shared dessert. Thank you.
