    We came here for valentines day, and it was a really great experience! I highly recommend a reservation in advance to make sure you get a table at a good time. It was pretty crowded, and we waited for our reserved table for a couple of minutes, but it did not take long at all. The server we had was very attentive and knowledgeable about drinks and the menu. We both ultimately did the treatment with all seafood including both cooked and raw, but they can cater it based on needs, allergies, etc. Typically you can get 6-8 dishes, and we got 7 in all, so we were definitely full. The food was delicious, and our favorite the seared tuna! Highly recommend this place for special dates, dinners, or even a solo self care daye for yourself. It'll be a treat!

    Lively atmosphere a little hard to hear the server explain the menu, however, the service did not delay. Bartender went above and beyond walked around the bar to hand us our drinks as to not reach over the people were sitting in front of us. Everything we ate was amazing. Definitely will be returning!

    Excellent Valentines Day experience . The special menu had enough choices to have something for everyone, and the food was delicious and service was excellent. The prices were elevated for the Valentine’s Day , which I do understand. Gotta make that money . I get it. Some of the prices did seem excessive though. For example , one small crabcake (maybe 3 oz) was $19. The filet mignon offering looked like a pretty modest cut , maybe (5-6 oz precook). I guess I’m just saying for $100, per person , the food was very good , but I don’t know that I would say a great ‘value’. They definitely marked up for the holiday.

    Festive atmosphere, Valentine's Day, but not devoted solely to couples. A lot of us were dining preshow. I saw several families. Food was great. They brought us an "extra" plate of roasted brussel sprouts to try and they were awesome. Great wine selection with some reasonable options

    The places was noisy. Patrons should be adviced on their noise level. Otherwise the atmosphere of the place is negativelly affected. It is a restaurant not a bar. Smell of the place was akwards as well.
