This style of service allows guests to experience a wide variety of offerings, including the following mouth-watering selections: Picanha, Flank Steak, Ribeye Steak, Leg of Lamb, Parmesan Pork Loin, Sirloin Steak, Chicken, Sausage and more!

    Always a great meal at Sea Watch! It was Valentine’s weekend, so we knew they’d be busy. Everything was served with little delay. Three of us enjoyed the scallops while the fourth had the Seafood Mixed Grill. Nice wine list, too. Prices are fair, and we (almost) always have leftovers to take home!

    Loved Camille’s and our waitress, Mary, was awesome! Valentine’s Day 5:30 reservation (only time we could get). We started with the Beet Salad and Grigliata mista. My wife loves beet salad and if it’s on the menu, she can’t resist! I was fabulous! Those beets along with, pistachio’s and arugula, and the creamy, wonderful cheese underneath. Holy Cow! Delicious. I wasn’t expecting the Griglia Mista to be fried, but it was wonderful. Very light breading and the dipping sauce was out perfect. Home run on the apps. Those plates were cleared and then 3 perfectly sized garlic rolls came straight from Heaven…I mean the kitchen. Some restaurants give baseball or softball sized rolls. Too big…these were perfectly sized and flavored. Left plenty of room for the meal. For the meal entree, I had the pasta special with shrimp, mussels, and clams. Home made noodles and a perfect sauce. My wife had the salmon piccata - She loved every bite. Everything was prepared spot on. We will be going back to Camille’s. Making a reservation for next month when my daughter comes for a visit.

    ALWAYS THE BEST, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. STEVE PUTS OUT QUALITY FOOD YOU CANNOT GET ANYWHERE ELSE. YES IT CAN GET A LITTLE LOUD, THE SERVERS CAN RUSH YOU OUT AFTER TWO HOURS, AND IT IS A LITTLE EXPENSIVE. BUT REMEMBER ONE THING AND ONE THING ONLY, IT’S ABOUT THE FOOD STUPID, IT’S ABOUT THE FOOD!
