So FABULOUS!!! They made such a mistake going so close to our theater time because this is a place to savor and enjoy. I could rave on and on about the wine selection and the food – especially the charcuterie platter – but honestly, the service was so far beyond what you would normally get at this price point that I can’t even begin to say enough. Phenomenal experience and can’t wait to go back.

Water Grill has always been a great lunch location for me. 2 people for $83 before tax is steep for sure. Service and food is great, just the price point is a bit excessive.

Celebrated our 7 year anniversary and the hostess seated us right by the olive tree. It was a magical night with even a candle on top of our banana tiramisu bread pudding - wow. Thank you for being part of our special day :)
