We tried the 3 course lunch special. I had the lobster bisque which was great, while my husband enjoyed the seafood gumbo. We both enjoyed the horseradish encrusted cod. I had the coleslaw with mine. It was very flavorful. I’m just sorry the Crème Brûlée nor the Key Lime pie were ready this early.

Our server and the manager Molly were great. We had a little hiccup with our food coming out timely and boy did they go above and beyond to make sure we still had a great experience. Our filet and sushi rolls (crunch roll and shrimp tempura) were excellent! Would highly recommend!

Sasha was our waitress and she was very helpful, cheerful, and polite. The service was a bit slow since it was the 25th of December, but other than that we had an amazing time! Would go again and would recommend it ☺️
