    Reservation was for 7:30 on a Saturday the hostess station was unoccupied 3 waiters made eye contact with our party and yet did not acknowledge us at all Person finally came to hostess station after we had waited 10 minutes. Place was not busy Person did not apologize for the wait and didn't acknowledge us with a greeting Put us at a table right outside the restrooms. Smell was overpowering. waited 10-15 minutes and NO ONE acknowledged us As we were leaving the person (may be a manager?) watched us leaving after he sat us down and he did not ask why we were leaving. May try again during the week

    We usually go to the same restaurant when we are in Galveston. This time we decided to venture out because it’s Galveston Food week. We looked at various restaurants menus and decided to come here. We were not disappointed. Everything was excellent, there was so much food to enjoy. We had appetizers, I had the steak and my husband had the pasta. By time the desserts arrived we were stuffed.

    Hi Kathy, we're so glad you decided to try us during Galveston Food Week! It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed everything, from the appetizers to the steak and pasta. Thank you for your kind words, and we hope to be a part of your future visits to Galveston!

    Good but not great. Chicken sandwich was not what I expected. A chicken salad sandwich would have been better. Pumpkin pasta was bland. Service was excellent.

    We loved the food which was excellent. The service outstanding. We had a table in the bar area which is beautifully decorated, with an impressive bar and lighting. The drinks were good and the special manhattan cocktail was indeed special. It will be worth going back just for that.

    We were there for our anniversary. Manager greeted us and showed us to our table. There was a happy anniversary card at our table. Food and drinks were amazing. Manager and wait staff were very attentive. Manager gave us a dessert and offered champagne for anniversary. Super experience. Thank you.

    Food was good. Manager was attentive. Waitress was distracted. Large parties waiting to cruise took away from ambience.
