My husband and I went to an early dinner for our anniversary. We were greeted and wished a happy anniversary by each employee we encountered during our visit. Our server was awesome and he did a great job of explaining the menu and giving recommendations. We enjoyed a lobster bisque and salad for starters and some mocktails. For entrees, I had scallops and shrimp riced cauliflower and my husband had tuna with mashed potatoes. We loved it. We enjoyed a lovely baked Alaska for dessert (they brought it to as a happy anniversary) and some coffee. Overall we were pleased with the meal, service and value. We will definitely go back again.

Everything was excellent. Our server, table, view was top notch. The filet, lobster tail, king crab was excellent along with the shrimp cocktail and scalloped potatoes. Now down to business. The carrot cake and the gawdly Parkerhouse rolls will make you slap your ex open fisted!! Unreal

Very fresh and delicious seafood. Always a hit. If you change up your order, and ask for something to be omitted or added, they can sometimes have a glitch with delivering on the request, but when made aware, quickly fix it, and apologize creating a good service recovery. Beautiful table decoration for birthdays, and delicious baked alaska. We also love the views, and will return!
