    Mooring is an excellent restaurant. Food is always good and in the summer months, the outside dining is terrific. Tables spaces nicely. Service is always excellent.

    Beautiful water view and outstanding service. All the food was excellent except the fried calamari was a little oily to my liking but still good..will definitely go back next time in town.
