    I went with a party of six, everyone got something different from the menu and it was all delicious! Several of us had the lemon artichoke soup, which was a perfect start to a great meal. All entrees - short ribs, scallops, meatloaf, sea bass and pork tenderloin were tasty and well done. The only one that our party didn’t love was the duck, which was good but not great. Sides were delicious. Service was fantastic- friendly, professional and attentive. The pace is slow, which we didn’t mind because we were there to enjoy the evening. The ambiance is friendly and fun while still feeling fairly upscale. We got 3 different desserts - cheesecake, key lime pie and Jack Daniel’s pie - loved them all. Overall a wonderful experience and we will be back!

    It was excellent. Our waiter Dale did a fantastic job taking care of us. Food phenomenal and the crème brûlée not many places compete. The mussel’s app could have been a little better. Cracked shells and some taste issues. But we are not on the coast as well so ….
