Food was outstanding. Unfortunately, the tables are too close together, so noise level was extremely high with a birthday party on either side of us. Restaurant was freezing cold. We asked upon arrival if they could turn on heat, temperature may have changed a bit. They did offer shawls, men at the table weren't too keen on that. Being so cold throughout the meal significantly impacted the overall experience. If I were to go back might be late spring when the temperatures are higher outside and then pray, they don't freeze you out with air conditioning. Wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone I liked.

We dined on Dec. 22, 2024. The evening on the patio was cool but the staff fired up the portable heaters and it was nice. The server, Katie was on point and took great care of us. The Bread service is to die for. We had grouper with sweet and spicy sauce. Very good. We keep coming back and the view of the ocean can't be beat. A real winner.

An exceptional dining experience in every aspect. The food was outstanding, and I can’t recommend enough that people try the Sesame Seared Tuna—best I’ve ever had. Our server, Jason, was fantastic. He was attentive and friendly, and made our birthday celebration dinner truly special. We will definitely be back.
