    Brandon was our server. I think he much wanted to be home. We go out at least 3 times a week. He was a poor server. I could tell as he walked towards our table he did not want to be here. Dinner was fine. Had a drink at bar before dinner and espresso martinis after dinner and bar girls were great-very pleasant! Love the wedge, best anywhere and soft shell crabs. Crab cakes also very good. Thx, LORNA

    It was absolutely beautiful sitting outside on the deck as the sun set and then enjoying the twinkling lights as it got dark. Food and service were great. I had yummy sashimi and carrot cake while my guests enjoyed the chowder and pasta with shrimp. Counting days until we can come back

    Excellent service from beginning to end. Food was great, ambience was excellent. By the time we were wrapping up, the restaurant was full and the noise level was vey high, but understandable, given the number of people.
