Daniella was the BEST bartender, server waitress... she made our brunch feel special. We felt taken care of without overkill. Great suggestions. She checked back with us to make sure we had what we needed. And she is beautiful.:-)) Our 2 sushi rolls were as fresh as you'd ever get, even in Japan. The pear and dried cranberry salad that we decided to share was split for us. We added grilled shrimp to the salad. It was a pleasant surprise when 3 large shrimp topped each half of our delicately dressed salads. Nice view. tucked away location. Great event venue.
The CoveResponded on October 28, 2024
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that Daniella made your brunch special and that her service hit the mark. It’s fantastic that you enjoyed the freshness of the sushi rolls and the surprise of the grilled shrimp in your salad. We’re glad you appreciated the view and the ambiance of our tucked-away location. We look forward to welcoming you back for another great experience!

I experienced my birthday celebration at the Cove. The ambience and esthetic were very rustic mediterranean vibes by the water. The food was fresh and tasty. The sushi roll was deliciously surprising. The staff was very friendly and attentive.The restaurant was pleasantly quiet, with just a bit of background music. Making it easy to talk to others. I had a great time !

I have been here a few times and can say I never had a memorable meal. We went for brunch this Sunday, and the situation was the same. My wife ordered Eggs Benedict with sauce on the side. I said I’ll have the same. When our order came out my wife got her sauce on the side, my eggs were covered in hollandaise sauce. The Canadian bacon was the thickness of a slice of regular bacon and about half the length. When I complained about it, they brought out four free slices of regular bacon. I find it hard to believe that a restaurant can screw up such a simple breakfast. This place is popular, difficult to get a reservation and expensive. I’m starting to think that’s more because of the view, than the food. I’m not rushing back.
