    The service is extraordinary. Our server and manager are very helpful. I am just disappointed at my dish, Shrimp Scampi. The shrimp is too over cooked and the dish has not much taste.

    We arrived early for our reservation but they had no problem seating us. We had a very good server. Enjoyed a bottle of wine, some oysters, yellow fin tuna and Artic char. Our only disappointment was that they were out of the Key lime pie that we wanted for desert.

    It was a birthday celebration and we let them know in advance. They did nothing special for us. Crab cake was dry and tiny. Otherwise this place is okay.
