The bartender Terry recommended the crab stuffed haddock wich was delicious she also picked out the most perfect chardonnay to go with it. We also had the crab nachos, ginger maki and a dynamite roll all very good. Between the food, the drinks, the view, and the service finz cant be beat! Best meal of our vacation for sure.“
