    The mussels were not plump and we're substandard. Three of us ordered the mussels mariniere, and I had the lobster roll which was excellent.

    Great selection of wine, cocktails, oysters and starters. Salmon tostado was excellent. We tried the Barramundi with honey glaze and a little heat and lobster roll - both were great. Maya was an awesome server! We’ll be back.

    Had calamari and barramundi and banana pudding: delicious; also delicious mocktails (Bad Habit in particular). Food came out fast, but entrees before calamari. Water refill a little slow considering that it wasn’t very busy. More casual ambiance than I was expecting, but still lovely. Overall a great experience.

    Sadla, the Food was not good. We ordered rhe salmon burger, it was dry, flavorless and overworked. And cold. My son ordered the lobster roll, it was not very good either. A shame. I wrote this same note in the bill. The server never turned around to ask how our meal was going. I had to get up from my table and ask for lemon .

    The server wasn’t very good. Gave us 1 appetizer with allergen in it, luckily my husband didn’t eat it!!! Didn’t really apologize and tried to charge for replacement. Because of mistake and needing to remake 1 appetizer all the food afterwards was overcooked (they probably cooked it and let is sit there and reheated), 2 dishes not edible. Disappointed because we really like the restaurant but this time was a big miss.
