We tried this restaurant after it was recommended and we weren't disappointed. It was hard to choose an entree from the large menu. We had the Tuscany shrimp, the scallops and the grouper. The presentation was beautiful and the dinners were delicious! The service by Kawyar was excellent. A wonderful dining experience.

My husband and I stopped in here looking for the steakhouse that was in this space a while back. We decided to stay and give the current establishment a try. We are so happy we did. The decor was fresh and bright, we had an awesome view of the bay while dining. Our server, Melina, was super nice and attentive. We had calamari and New England Clam Chowder with ciabatta bread for our appetizers. They were both excellent. For lunch, my husband had a Lobster roll and I had a French Dip, again both were flavorful and really good. We would love to come back for dinner! We highgly recommend stopping in and giving them a try!Parking: large parking lotWheelchair accessibility: Accessible

We ate here twice and both times the food just did not seem to meet expectations. No specific complaints, just nothing to brag about compared to the other restaurants we ate at in the area.

So we stopped in for HH. We were hoping for a stop at the bar. No such luck. There are only about 8 spots at the bar. We're were asked if we had resos we did not, so we were Sat in the bar at a community table. The service was not the greatest. The waitress came to the table with waters and menus. I was hoping for a nice specialty cocktail but they do not have a specialty drink menu. I found that very odd. Our drinks and food came out quickly. Food was very good. I ordered the gyro with fries and my boyfriend ordered wings and fries. While enjoying out food and drinks a guest accidentally bumped into a waitstaff, a drink fell off the tray, she copped a big attitude and walked away. It took almost 10min. before someone came to clean it up. SMH. After finishing our food we asked for our check, she said she'd bring it right over. 20min. later we went to the bar to pay ask for check. The waitress apologized and the bartender commented the bar needs to be seated. (?) We were seated by the hostess. We may return again as the atmosphere was nice and we enjoyed the live music.​

Very odd place. The first time the food was fine. The second visit, we showed up only to find the couple next to us packing up and getting their food to go. Evidently they were NOT allowed to share, while sitting at the bar. My wife asked to swap out the $5 mashed potatoes that came with her meal for the $7 pasta (totally willing to pay the extra $2) and they insisted on a $6 up charge (300% markup). The responses were so juvenile, we decided to go to 82 degrees instead and had a wonderful evening for just under $85 (we might have stayed a bit longer than intended....LOL!).
