I am here to tell you that mushroom ravioli is out of this world! We loved everything about this restaurant. It’s beautiful outside as well as in. You can see the water from the windows. Everyone is so nice. If you are a big fan of good drinking waters, I give this one a 10. Seriously good. I drink my water with a fresh palate, before eating or drinking anything else. Perfection. The sweet tea is ridiculously delicious. I enjoyed the bread. As a vegetarian I was overjoyed they had an incredible dish. My phone was not letting me use the flash. It was way prettier than my photo. And, unlike many upscale restaurants, the portions were very generous. They also have a huge selection of meat dishes. My family ordered kalamari, which they said was the best they ever had. One of us had the lamb, and ate every bite. Beautiful plating. Another had a good sized steak, and got full before finishing. She said it was incredible. I love this place and hope to go again on my next vacation! They even fixed a kid friendly meal especially for the 10 year old in our group!! Thank you for the best food ever!

We visited this establishment for our anniversary dinner. It was easy to make reservations over the phone before they opened.

This restaurant was very accommodating to us after we had a last-minute reservation mixup at another restaurant. We celebrated our girlfriend’s birthday this pass weekend and we were pleased with the choice to come here. The good was very good and the wait staff was pleasant. We wish the weather was nicer. We will definitely be returning.

We ordered the scallops, crab cake, and fried shrimp as an appetizer; and the stuffed shrimp and rack of lambs for entrees. I enjoyed the food and the views outside. The only thing for me was that my husband’s risotto tasted salty and I didn’t really care for it, but I got the mashed potatoes, and I did like that a lot better. I would also like to say that before coming here, I was convinced that I didn’t like lamb, but after trying it here, I’ve changed my mind… it was delicious! I really like the sauce it came with as well.

I came here on a whim with my sister and the ambiance was awesome. It’s by the marina and a hidden gem in my opinion. I had the pineapple upside down martini, crab dip and my sister had the crab cake and a sweet tea. We had appetizers and drinks and was it was great. Certain will be back asap!

I enjoyed this place quite a bit. Service was polite. There was a timely wait for our food since there were several parties going on. Reservations are preferred if you don’t want to wait. Peach Sangria is one of my favorites here. It just takes one cup to relax nicely, but you won’t want to drink just one… lol. Food was great!! Lobster Tortellini and the Lamb dinner were awesome. Lamb was not gamey at all!! Tasted like Aberdeens Filet Mignon (I know it’s a bit hard to believe, but that’s the closest reference, in my opinion) and it was really tender! The Lobster Tortellini was amazing as well! I have a pretty big appetite and this meal was very filling. Also, their desserts… cream brûlée and chocolate cake w/ice cream are amazing!!! Not a fan of the other desserts they offer.
