Was here for a special birthday breakfast. Beautiful intimate table by the window with an amazing ocean view. We had the crab eggs Benedict and Dulce de Leche French toast. Both were excellent. The service was gracious and appropriately attentive. Highly recommend.

The food and service was great. One individual who was dining in may have had too much to drink and was extremely loud and somewhat provocative but not in the restaurants control.
