We went the Monday before Christmas. We had a party of 6 and everyone loved the meal. Appetizers to desert. We were doing our family Christmas tradition of Réveillon Meal. From the steak, scallops, and blackened redfish dishes we were all pleased. The place is beautiful and we all enjoyed the evening. We have been doing this for twenty years and this was one of the best. I hope they continue to offer this every year.

I had a reservation for a group of 7 for a Christmas dinner at 7:30p. We ordered drinks when we sat down, drinks took 25 minutes to come out, we ordered appetizers immediately after along with food because we noticed to service was so slow. Our appetizers did not come out until 8:30p and our food was not brought out until 9:50p. We spent more time sitting around waiting then actually enjoying the food. Because the food took so long, we missed our later plans that were scheduled for the night. Very upset and will not be returning.
