This is a great restaurant! Loved the service and how you can see your food being made by the fire. The steak was made to perfection and I loved the peppercorn sauce that came with it and love the chimichurri sauce that my server let me taste even more! The seared tuna was very good as well as an appetizer. I’m addicted!

This place is always top notch. They seem genuinely happy to see you , provide excellent service, prompt seating , perfect patio and delicious food . It is always consistently great. Highly recommend !

Lemon Drop Martini’s are a MUST HAVE! Oysters are amazing! Burgers are top notch! We love the ambience, but Christmas was definitely HOPPING, so the noise level was a little more than normal, but it was a festive and fun, so not loud in a bad way. Great place anytime, but highly recommend for special occasions. Love the Lakewood location.

Amazing food, service and atmosphere. The amaro flight was amazing!
