    Lindsay was excellent, attentive without being too much. Very pleasant. I got the eggs Benedict. The biscuit it was on was housemade and really egg. The poached eggs were perfect - not undercooked which is my experience often. Would definitely go back.

    I went to this restaurant for my 2nd anniversary with my fiance. We actually got engaged right next to this restaurant and it was absolutely amazing. Gorgeous location with tons of outdoor seating. The food is immaculate. The boathouse scallops are to die for and my Fiance won’t stop talking about the filet mignon. Seasonal drinks were incredible and our waitress was so nice! The man who seated us was also so so so thoughtful and kind! Highly recommend this place for any occasion!
