From the start the service and ambience were fantastic. Our server was delightful. She recommended the potholes and the blackener white fish. One of the parties had the blackened cod and said it was the best she's ever had . We all enjoyed the potholes and will definitely be back to order this again. The scallops and risotto were melt in your mouth delicious. The salmon was grilled to perfection. Thank you for a delightful and memorable evening. We'll be back soon!

The food was excellent! Everything came out in a timely matter and was cooked to perfection. There were a few times where we were searching for our server, but the food runner and bus were on top of it. We did the unlimited tops and will definitely be back
