An obvious choice when I want a meal on a gorgeous day. New Year’s Eve morning, beautiful 75° crystal clear sky went to rendezvous. Had breakfast and as always it was delicious. The complaint is a silly one, they give us way too much food. The good news, I have breakfast for tomorrow. Looking out on the water and the boats is so relaxing. The server very attentive. All in all, as always, Worth the trip.
