First time and it was a great experience! Nick took care of our drinks and meals. He gave us his recommendations and favorites which did not disappoint! We had a great time and can't wait to go back!

Food hasn't been as good as usual however the swordfish was perfectly cooked last night but served with old/ dried out polenta. Apps were outstanding but our dinners were were disappointing ... our guests came for their favorite pork chop which was a tiny portion and sauce tasted like ketchup. We were disappointed. Service was excellent tho and the spicy margaritas were amazing!

Great service, welcoming hostess. Bar area is lively and bartenders were amazing. Our server was great, handling group of 12 can be challenging and he nailed it! Considering this restaurant to be seafood place, it was a bit disappointing, some fish dishes like mahi mani and halibut they were dry and some dishes were cold. Some dishes were lacking seasoning, overall was good experience. Very beautiful interior.
