    We enjoyed the Parrot Islw Coconut Shrimp & the Bacon m-wrapped Scallops as an appetizer & they were spot on delicious! My favorite was the Crab your way. I had the simple steamed Crab legs with drawn butter & enjoyed the true flavor. The highlight of the dinner was the “Snow Globe Sangria!” It is a perfect blend on of Christmas in a glass! Try just one!!!
