Nice local place. A little trip for us but close to our friends house. If you like Mexican this is a good place. If it was closer to us we would probably go more often,

We had the most wonderful experience! The food was amazing, and the selection was great. My husband and I are picky, and couldn't have asked for a more delightful evening. The wine selection was outstanding as well. Our waiter was at our service frequently, but not so much to be an annoyance. He gave great recommendations on food choices as well as, wine pairing. The scenery was beautiful, and a great night to dine in a relaxing atmosphere.

Needs to be updated. Old atmosphere. Food was pricey and not of good quality. vegetables served ice cold and not cooked. Chicken was a breaded frozen patty. Not a light tomatoe sauce as advertised on the menu. Was sauce from a jar.

It was a slow night at the restaurant. The staff was very friendly and attentive. We were the only people eating outside on the deck. It was chilly, but a great view of the water. Food was yummy.

The restaurant is excellent service is great food is great! I might go there a little more often if I would be able to get a discount as it can become quite expensive especially if I go with more people in the family. i hopd that they continue to have Salomon DiJon as we only eat certain fishes as we are kosher. We ended up spending more that anticipated because the food was so, good and appetizing. The music was good and the free drink although we were unfamilar with them and we picked a strong one it was quite a nice jester. I hope you run more discounts so, we can take advantage of them. Thanks very much for a most enjoyable time and dinner. My husband absolutely loves it there. I just would like to see more Italian dishes too to choose from. We have gone there before it wasn't our first time and my husband loved it from before you change the restaurant. He was a Supervisor in the Post Office years ago and went there and didn't stop talking about it.

When we arrived at 1:00 p.m. the porter was mopping the floor. We were the only ones in the restaurant. I guess that's why the AC was not on (it was 99 degrees outside). We were told it was being repaired and were given a tableside fan. Then, a repairman dragged a ten foot ladder over to the table two feet away from us and proceeded to replace a ceiling fixture. UGH!!!

They were not inviting and friendly. The food wasn't great. They did not ask us if we wanted anything during our meal. They asked if we were ok once we were done. I also spilled some salsa on the table and they didn't clean it up. Instead they put my entree right next to it.
