    We had a special occasion birthday dinner, and everything was lovely including the table placement which was oceanfront and had a spectacular view. The food was delicious, a bit pricey, but we already knew that. We loved the table side prepared Caesar salad. For the price, wish there was more of everything in the salad including anchovies that I asked for while the server was preparing the dressing but I was essentially shut down and told there would be more added as a topping, which ended up being 1 small anchovy, Lol. I’d suggest the server be more accommodating when customers are making requests because what they think and what I actually wanted (and didn’t receive) won’t always align. The bananas foster was amazing and fun to watch. There was a hiccup with a forgotten appetizer order. In spite of a few misses, the entire experience was still very enjoyable!

    Service was excellent. The food was delicious especially the beef Wellington. It’s always nice to find a restaurant that’s been around 60 years and still maintains quality and service. The view is spectacular!

    Service was impeccable. Every server and the hostess was really friendly and welcoming. Was greeted by every server when walking in. Michael is an amazing waiter and if you have him for date night, you’re 100% in good hands!

    This is an iconic restaurant that truly has proven itself since 1962. The quality of the food and exceptional service make this an amazing experience coupled with the views of the Ocean. Our Maitre-D greeted us warmly as we entered and all the waiters and wait staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive. Chef Hardy was kind enough to come out and greet us as guests and even made us a little something special to celebrate my birthday. I would highly recommend the amazing establishment as the pricing for the exceptional quality was just amazing!

    Exquisite restaurant setting with superb cuisine and service on the ocean. Exudes quiet elegance. The oysters, escargot, lamb, seared ahi, and cherries jubilee were heavenly. Can't wait to return

    Wonderful place food was delicious and service was amazing. Only bad thing I can say is that we are so sad that the Sunday Brunch is going away in July. This was the perfect place to go on Sunday!
