Absolutely fabulous experience! Great wait staff, beautiful place, nice background music selection that didn’t drown you out. And the FOOD!!! All incredible and larger portions than we expected. The pumpkin pasta and the orrachiette were especially delicious. The S’mores Crème Brûlée was rich and decadent. We will definitely return!

We had an amazing experience on Thanksgiving. We are huge seafood people who are normally picky and say to only eat it from the coasts. However, the food was so fresh. The oysters were some of the meatiest ones I’ve ever ate before and they were full of flavorful filling. We split the 2 pounds of jumbo king crab legs and added a steak to split also. Everything was cooked exactly how ordered. I do wish they gave you scissors to cut your king crab with instead of just a shucker since those shells can be a lot harder to handle on the joints and knuckles
