    Everything about The Boathouse was on point. From the service down to all of the entries we had, everything was fantastic. My wife had the lobster roll and loved it. I had the Filet Mignon sliders and the baked potato and they were great as well. Drinks were also outstanding and from a value standpoint, we were very satisfied. There’s a reason the Boathouse is a standout restaurant, and tonight was another reason why we’ll be back.

    Probably my 15th time to visit Morimoto Asia. This is one of the most consistent dining experiences we have ever experienced. The food is always delicious. Our server Miyuki was exceptional. She was attentive, helpful with suggestions. She paced the food delivery perfectly. I cannot say enough good things about this experience.

    Amazing experience. Food, staff, atmosphere were all outstanding. Staff made you feel important and answered all of our questions, even those not concerning the food. Food, just can’t compare it to anything else, I have never had such a flavorful and cooked to perfection steak as that. Atmosphere was great at 5pm. Quiet and calm. Best meal I have ever had.

    Luis our attendant was courteous and attentive of our requests. He made some recommendations of the menu. My spouse has some food allergies and they were very accommodating. The meatballs appetizers were incredibly tender and delicious. The main courses were plentiful and fulfilling. Thanks for a delightful dinner.
