    The quality of the service and the quality of the food are on par with a "white tablecloth" restaurant. Whether to celebrate an achievement, to woo that special person, or just to feed your hunger, this is a great place! Food, swank, and atmosphere - Simon & Seafort's has it all!

    They made my birthday and engagement party celebration very special. It wasn’t the type where they just sang for me, but rather the server and staff felt like they were really, really happy for me all dinner, too. Everyone was smiling and nice. They were so good to my parents. They knew I really wanted the bananas foster, but my dad didn’t want to order 2 (minimum). So, they gave me a banana split that was like a bananas foster. It was really touching and a wonderful day. I highly recommend having special days at Crow’s Nest
