The service was amazing. The food was amazing. I had the shrimp and scallop risotto. It’s always excellent and we share the dessert of the crème brûlée bread pudding. It was the best I’ve ever had.

Dinner was delicious. The table had the grilled cheese, Greek salad, sea scallops, fish sandwich and crispy duck. Everyone was happy. Jordan was our server and she is great. She even helped present a birthday cake to my parents.
