    An outstanding experience as always. Whether I bring family, clients or business partners, The Moshulu food and service is 5 stars. As usual the service, smiles and promptness is perfect. "YASMINE" our server made my business partners very comfortable and brought top dining service to a new level. Professional, confident and well learned about the menu (including the specials) there was no doubt what we ordered would be spot on. Our hostesses greeted us with smiles and seated us promptly, well dressed and proper. Hats of to the chef, spectacular food prepared perfectly, and the dessert was to die for. It felt great to tell the manager how awesome their team is. He does a fine job keeping up on things. Whether you're on a long trip up the coast or local do NOT miss this Jewel, the ambience alone will "Awe" you. They have plenty of seating, and even an outside upper deck (weather permitting) Make reservations to assure you have a seat. And take care of those those taking care of you, the world doesnt like cheapskate...
