Well I didn’t know what to expect. The ads and photos show everything on plates and well displayed. The food showed up in plastic bags and you got tiny paper bowls and plastic cutlery. For something that cost almost 400 bucks you would be better off to go for steak and lobster. Or if you are on a budget red lobster is a much better option. The flavour of the food was okay. Everything was overcooked and almost felt like it was sitting for a while. The presentation was not great....read full review
A bit on the pricey side but my boyfriend and I love seafood. The atmosphere is fun and the flavours amazing. This has become a tradition restaurant for my boyfriend’s birthday supper!
Waitress explained the large menu and options throughly. Food was excellent and it was fun to eat!
