    The food wasn't t nearly as good as I expected. Side salad with dinner was tiny and dressing had no flavor. Halibut was overcooked, very dry and along with potato very underseasoned.Overall, disappointing.

    The meal and service were wonderful. We ordered the crab cake appetizer and the lobster noodle entree. Both were fantastic: Very well cooked and beautifully flavorful. Our waitress, Wendy, was very attentive throughout the night and made great suggestions and answered all of our questions about the menu. We had a window seat so everything was perfect!

    Excellent setting, food and service. Service: Sarah was our waitress and she did an excellent job - provide suggestions, taking care of our 3 hour evening dinner. Pace was just right - not rushed and not too slow. Food: It was superb - very well balanced in flavors, temperature and presentation. I can tell the chef tasted what he made, and adjusted accordingly. Setting: The view out of the big windows was magnificent, table setting was very well done also (plates, forks and knives were changed out after each course).
