    Very nice view, the restaurant was very elegant and the food was wonderful. The fish of the day was swordfish and cooked excellent! The plate cost $40 which considering its Disney Springs I felt was really affordable.

    Food was excellent, Haley was attentive, knowable on the menu and personable. Only issue was a mixup with an order on the kitchen end, but that was solved by Haley quickly. 10/10 experience.

    Wow what a great evening. Server Cameron was very pleasant and informed on the food and beverage choices and we had a beautiful view by the windows as the sun went down. Clam linguine, chowder, sides, all top notch, would definitely recommend this location. Quiet and well separated tables for dining enjoyment

    The food was fine. Portions size was erratic. Noise was unbearable. I could not wait to get out of there. Maybe the downstairs rooms are better, but we were on the third floor in a room with all hard surfaces and glass, bright lights. I felt like we were in a cafeteria.
