Food lacked depth of flavor. Bread was starting to get stale. Asked for salt server gave us salt shakers 3 times because each one was clumped finally had to give us salt in a plate. They were out of diet soda, out of risotto. Nice place but wouldn’t come back. For the money we spent it was disappointing. Server was good

We hosted my brother’s engagement party there on 9/10/2022. Tara, the manager, drove to the restaurant to let us see the space, gave me all the prices, food options ahead of time. We knew exactly what we were payinng and it never changed. Tara suggested I drop off all the decorations, liquor and cupcakes ahead of the event so they could help us decorate and set up everything for the dinner party. Let’s now talk sbout Britney. Britney was our server and I couldn’t have asked for someone more attentive who made our event feel so special. She kept asking and making sure everything was to our satisfaction and we were happy. We were definitely happy with everything Britney did, especially how cute she made the tables and room look for the engagement. Britney is a doll! If you need to use this place for an event, ask for Britney. I loved her. Now let’s talk about the food…… WOW. Each person that came to the dinner party was raving about the food. It was truly delicious. The views and atmosphere are right on point. Great place to host an event or simply have a great meal with a fantastic view. Thank you Tara and Britney!!!! My Bro and his fiance were very happy enjoyed the entire evening. Frankie

Super excited that they are dog friendly outside. The service was exceptional. I’m sorry to say I don’t remember the young woman’s name who was our server. She was excellent and very nice. The food portions were large. Food came out quickly and was very good. Definitely will go back again.

Do not order the sangria. It’s absolutely awful. They could’ve at least Googled how to make it. Only to find out later it was $40 a pitcher because it wasn’t listed on the menu I had (they got me on that one). If it wasn’t for the view I’d give it 2 stars. Overall this place is just ok… Don’t go out of your way to come here.

third and final time to eat at this rude and nasty restaurant. had reservations 2 days in advance. upon arrival, the hostess wanted to seat us in the rain. the servers were wringing out towels in an attempt to dry our seats. the hostess and staff could care less that we didnt want to sit in the rain. “too bad” was the attitude. shame shame shame

Wow….. this place was great. The food was really good, the portions were HUGE and it’s right on the water. I don’t get the negative reviews I’ve seen for this place. It’s super hard to get good help nowadays so that I get but we had good service and great food. You’d be foolish to pass on this place.

Great food with a terrific view! I had a crispy buffalo chicken sandwich. With the creamy gorgonzola sauce, it was the perfect mix of spicy, tangy, and savory. My son had the Channel Wings, which were meaty, and full of flavor.
