    Service good. Noisy. Grouper not as good as two months ago. Filet mignon dry and tasteless.

    Our server, Laltesh, was apparently much more interested in selling drinks and appetizers than providing quality service for the included 20% tip for our party of 7. He would not announce the dinner specials until after appetizers were ordered. A member of our party was served chicken rather than the duck she ordered and had to wait for the correct dish to be prepared (and eventually served overdone) while the rest of us ate ours. We had to repeatedly ask for water refills. We have had several good dining experiences while in town for a business meeting; this was definitely not one of them.

    Sandra, our server, was very attentive and helpful. We chose Lobster Bisque, Sea Bass, and Bouillaibaisse, and everything was delicious! We shared the flourless chocolate cake for dessert, and it was well worth the calories.
