Our server was amazing, the food was delicious and we enjoyed a spectacular view of downtown. We started off with the drinks, the major tots and lobster roll hor dourves, rigatoni pasta, and finished off with the old baked Alaska dessert. Overall, this was a wonderful experience and highly recommend for a date night.
