Had dinner with friends at the spare rib , couldn’t be more satisfied with the service , food selection and atmosphere.
We had the specials , prime rib that was absolutely delicious.
The calamari and red sauce appetizer was fantastic. The ribs fell off the bone .
Will be back !!!

I am a very unhappy first time guest.. it’s just the principle of the Matter because I don’t generally do this.. but, I work in the cooking business and seafood business … I’m a major fisherman and I have worked from boats to seafood cutlery to meat managing and prep and culinary management for years.. I know things.. aside from other things that “we don’t have that” or “oh she can’t do that now” simple things like asking for a drink that’s advertised!!!...read full review
