Visited last night for the first time ,
We were sat twenty minutes before our waiter ever came to the table . The Moscow mule was delicious. The seasonal drink pumpkin harvest left a ton to be desired. I ordered the seafood pasta which had over cooked lobster and shrimp with the tails still on covered in sauce .
Comparably we will stick with latitudes in the future
Our Server was great! However, it was very disappointing to learn that a side could not be substituted. The server shared that the company no longer permits this. Even though the sides are the same price, if I wanted to sub Brocolli for the potatoes, it would be an up charge for the full price of a side. So much for meeting guests’ dietary needs. With all of the other amazing seafood restaurants in the RVA area, we will go elsewhere.
Brunch menu has nice options. Great she-crab soup. We should’ve ordered another bowl to go. Fresh seafood at a fair price with friendly staff.
