An unforgettable dining experience at Molos! While known for its seafood, I have to say the Filet Mignon and Lamb Chops were absolutely top-tier—cooked to perfection, tender, and full of flavor. My partner had the Fig Martini, which was smooth and delicious, and the Crab Cake? Simply to die for! Beyond the incredible food, the atmosphere was breathtaking. The waterfront views made for a stunning backdrop to our evening, and I highly recommend requesting a window seat for the full experience (they honored my request, which I truly appreciated). The staff was friendly, attentive, and on point, making sure everything went smoothly from start to finish. Plus, parking was quick and easy, which is always a bonus in this area. If you’re looking for great food, amazing service, and a romantic ambiance, Molos is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be back!
