    We made dinner reservations for Christmas Eve. The restaurant was beautiful and had a DJ who was spinning some great Christmas mashups. Our server Paige was simply wonderful and very attentive. All of our food was delicious, the only thing we collectively didn’t enjoy was the sweet potato purée, the spice flavor was overwhelming. We will definitely be back!

    We had a positive experience with the food and the service. The Spicy Yellowtail Crispy Rice app was delicious, and we both enjoyed the very fresh whole Branzino, at our excellent waiter, Sergio's suggestion. My expresso martini was served cold in a chilled glass, and the server cheerfully replaced a glass of wine when the one my partner ordered didn't suit. A few drawbacks; the seafood selection is not as robust as other seafood places we like (e.g., Watergrill), and the prices are much higher than normal, even for fine dining. The atmosphere was aesthetically pleasing, but having sports bar style tv's on during dinner didn't really make sense to me.

    We were given a tiny table for two, facing two TV screens despite restaurant being almost empty. Food was good but overly expensive. Nice decor but background of constant drumbeat. We wont be back.

    Seafood tower could not have been fresh. Clam chowder was oily with minimal clam. Lobster roll was tiny, also couldn’t have been fresh. I’d easily take my $450 and go anywhere else in cherry creek. This isn’t meant to sound personal, but I couldn’t be talked into coming back.

    Our server was attentive and doing her best but the food was terrible. Our starters of oysters and the tuna tartare on fried rice squares were fine but everything else was horrible. The meat and fish were overcooked. Nothing tasted particularly fresh. We ordered a side of stir fry vegetables that while it cost $18 was a tiny portion of what looked like overcooked vegetables from a frozen bag. It was embarrassing!! Our party of four literally left mad at the restaurant for how bad the food was and considering our bill for a party of 4 was about $500 that was really annoying. The ambiance looks like it belongs in a cruise ship and is not intimate or particularly stylish. All around this place will not last.
