Everyone who worked for the restaurant made for an amazing experience from check in to the final moments when we were given roses. Food and drinks were great, I ordered the Cuddle fish drink which was delicious along with a cup of clam chowder and the Captains plate. Everything was delicious and the service was outstanding!!! Thank you for a great night!
