Server and manager were excellent and accommodating. A huge party was celebrating and our group requested a seating change to the patio which was immediately taken care of for our group. Food was great (with the exception of the calamari). A very beautiful view of the water and a lovely cool beach evening made it a lovely dinner experience. Definitely recommended.

Very nice setting and excellent service staff. Excellent value. Didn’t rate 5 stars overall because the short ribs didn’t meet my husband’s expectations.

What a hidden gem. Had never been to this part of the harbor before, but was pleasantly surprised, it was our first time here and we will definitely be back. Excellent food and ambiance. Had a birthday dinner party and the stay took care of us and made the evening so special.

We selected this location for a special occasion dinner and were not disappointed. The ambience was exceptional. The staff were extremely cordial and pleasant. And the food was extraordinary. One of us did want to be adventurous and order something they did not know of before and unfortunately the dish came with a lot of garlic and onions which did not suit their dietary restrictions, BUT that was on them for not asking. Otherwise all dishes were delicious, including dessert!! Would highly recommend.

Menu has changed, but has something for everyone. Everything was delicious, the pizza, the pasta, the steak and the fish and 2 special deserts for birthdays and anniversary celebration. There were 8 of us and were tended to without having to ask for service. Location is great when wanting to impress family. Really enjoyed our evening, the food and location. Highly recommend!
