Our waiter was very helpful, friendly and attentive, but not too much, as he had a lot of tables this afternoon. Fries came with my lunch. I had to request a fresh order of fries as mine were very cool. The Clam Chowder is the best item on the menu, though over priced as are all food items. But yhou're paying for the relocation, not the high quality of the menu items. Food quality is B-.

Family ate like we hadn’t seen good before. The crab cake was delectable and my filet mignon was cooked perfectly. There was Cioppino, sushi, strip steak and key lime pie. Lots of drinks. Kelly was our wonderful guide to the menu, very professional. Highly recommended.

We were running a little late and they called me and we're happy to hold my table since especially it was our anniversary. Our waiter Danny was awesome, serving our every need and was always close by when we wanted additional food or drink. He was extremely friendly and even bought us our anniversary dessert 🍨 I've been to your restaurant a few times and am always impressed. My Fiancee has never been here before and was so impressed that she told me that wants to continue to come here for drinks and dinner. Thank you all for your kindness and making our anniversary so special ❤️
