   "I was intrigued by this place and eager to try some of their seafood selections. I was pleasantly surprised by how good it was! I had the Chilean Sea Bass, and it was absolutely delicious—cooked to perfection. The ambiance had a classic Godfather movie feel but with a modern twist, which added to the charm. I also loved how spacious the restaurant is. The restrooms are located upstairs, where you'll also find a separate bar and lounge area. Overall, this is a fantastic spot for a date night!"

   We started with the octopus which was good. Had better at Jose Andres in Chicago, but it wasn’t bad at all. We shared a Caesar salad which was very fresh and the anchovies we excellent. We also shared the sea bass and it did not disappoint. The side of Brussels sprouts were good too. All in all the food was good. Fresh silverware would have been nice when going from appetizers to main lunch meal.

   Water grill is appropriate name. The Chilean Sea Bass was water. My daughter had a plain piece without the sauce and it was also watery. Likewise, the black cod was soaked in sauce. The charred Brussel sprouts were okay . The $11 fries were okay. The wine prices were high $14 a glass for house Chard. The food was cold when it was delivered - after it was first delivered to wrong table. The oysters fro the raw bar were good. All in all, very disappointing at the price point. Not up to Eddie V’s food quality or service.

   We really enjoyed our meal of cold water oysters, spiny lobster and spotted prawns. Service and ambience was great.

   Food was excellent, service was very good! I drink a ton of water and the poor server had to come fill it like 30 times and he never let my glass go empty. That means a lot to me.

    Old school ambience and service without the old school attitude.
