great view is about the only thing going for the place. worst overdone meal. long wait times. ignored by bar staff while sitting at the bar to eat. food was basic at best while being over cooked and dark. best to avoid spending money here.

I thought the tacos were kinda stale and no taste. Won’t go back.

Thankful that our waitress was very familiar with the menu! I stepped out of my normal shell and decided to try the lobster ravioli - it was AMAZING!!!! Not too rich and the sauce was perfect! I'm not a huge fan of marinara sauce and that's why my hesitation but the creamy sauce was absolutely delightful! Thank you for the wonderful dinner for our large crowd! Staff were all super helpful and friendly!
