Outstanding. Could have stopped at the tomato bisque and crab cakes for an appetizer. Had the lobster grilled cheese and I’m a happy fat kid! Good stuff.

Great food and waitstaff. Reasonable prices for drinks considering the food menu’s prices. Our table had 3 fish dishes, all different, and all came out perfectly. I’d recommend them if you’ve got the budget for $30-40 per person for a full meal.

Food is overpriced for the quality. Not sure if the kitchen was having an off day, but many of the items we ordered were incorrect or poorly cooked. The steaks were seared but hardly cooked through. They were undercooked for what we were looking for. The chicken parm was good, but the breading was burnt. Pasta was okay. It could have used more sauce. Service was attentive, I felt bad for our waitress because she had to keep taking stuff back to the kitchen. Menu seems to have good selection, and the seafood looked good. Desert selection was limited. Likely not coming back.

Food was delicious, pricing is as expected. Service was great and they will try very hard to get you to consider a dessert by bringing out a plate with all of the options. Fortunately, dessert was also great and large as they were successful in convincing our party.

First time at this restaurant. The cocktails and appetizer were very good but our waitress had seemed to be to busy to wait on us for such a fine establishment which didn’t seem too busy for a Tuesday night. We were there for over 45 minutes and only saw the waitstaff twice. Once to order a drink and then to order an appetizer. No water was brought to the table or to find out if we were happy so far with our orders. Very annoying to say the least so we paid our bill and left to eat somewhere else.

Pretty good place. I got the cowboy steak and it was okay. Could have used more seasoning. Spinach art dip was decent. Service was great, fast and friendly. The place wasn’t super busy so you could probably get a Friday dinner table with no reservation. Haven’t tried the fish.

We scheduled an event here after my two daughters baptism took place. We were told our $500+ tab “wasn’t really that much” by the waitress. She told us it really wasn’t worth her time, and it showed. We had to BEG for silverware, plates, bowls, bread, and an hour late, the antipasto plate showed up. The restaurant was empty except for one table. My wife and I have had quite a few events here because she worked here for many years. The absence of Mo is felt and the management didn’t live up to the standard that has been set. My family will not return and I will discourage everyone I know (who didn’t attend) from dining here. Those that were in attendance won’t return after witnessing the poor service

This is by far the most amazing place to eat…We have been there several times already, and the food is superb and the staff are very welcoming and attentive…we had the best waitress there that we have ever had, and we frequent different restaurants all the time. It is absolutely our favorite! The food is always on point…a little pricey, but for the quality it is well worth it….we will definitely keep going there 🙂

The food isn’t really worth what you pay for it. Both times I’ve been here it’s been boring and bland. Good atmosphere and quiet but seriously, if I’m paying upwards of $40 for a meal I expect a commensurate level of food and service. And what is the deal with the fried, greasy, overseasoned bread in a paper bag? Who does that?

Do not come here if you have allergies or food restrictions of any kind. I have been multiple times and have asked for a steak, made gluten free, and it proves to be an impossible task. Unengaged service and beyond sub-par food…unacceptable and not worth it. Even the rest of my family, who has no dietary restrictions, finds the quality of food to be consistently poor.
