    Such a bad service, we ordered an octopus for appetizer and took aprox 30 min to be on the table. Then I ordered a soda that took for ever, asked twice for it. No good experience, food was not as good as before.

    Waiter and the service was great , just valet situation was bad ... Made us turn around to go into a long line of people getting there cars no arriving, so we were very late for our table reservations .... outside for 30 minutes They seemed overwhelmed about it and stressed I believe they should have a better system , in and out lanes or ?

    *Valet parking overpriced ($25) and too slow. ($18 on website) *Waited 15 minutes to be seated eventhoug we had a reservation. *Waiting area sofa showed nasty stains. *Very limited or poor menu on special days. Undisclosed on website. *Glass of wine $17-$35 on average too pricey. *Rocky path to outdoor tables. Very uncomfortable to walk on heels. *Dinners were admitted with shorts and beach sandals. Dress code not enforced. *Unfenced dockside. Very dangerous for small children. *Too many people handling the table. Waiter, water guy, candle guy, server. *Outdoors wood tables pretty shabby. No table cloth. *20% tip added to bill upfront. (Undisclosed on website.) *Attentive, well groomed waiter. *Nice, quiet ambiance.
