    Our food took forever and was of poor quality. We had to ask server for status of our order and they seemed as if patrons were an imposition.

    What I ordered and what I got was definitely not worth the price, I felt as though I paid $40 for a cheese pizza. I did created what I wanted, which was a shrimp pizza. I’m not over exaggerating it wasn’t even at least a shrimp per slice, it was every other slice and not even a whole ones. order took foreverrrrr to come out, It use to be my favorite spot, I’m not sure what changed but the operation was not a smooth. The MOD did offer 20% off, I guess by what he observed or not getting my order in a timely manner.

    Our server Jewel was fantastic! My friend and I sat on the patio to view the sunset over the water and it was beautiful. The food was so good. We will definitely return!

    The service was great. However, but the food quality was mediocre at best. I had salmon with a glass of Chardonnay and my husband and son both had the wings and fries with a beer for my husband. Our bill was $117 with tip which was price for the selections and quality. We were surprised because we ate at this location a few years back while staying at the Hyatt next door and it was much better. We will try again because the setting is great overlooking the Wharf’s pier.
