    This was our first time visiting. It was the day after Valentine’s Day, so it was especially busy. But overall, a great experience and we will definitely come back.

    We saw this place advertised on Instagram and made a reservation for Valentine's Day for four of us. I wasn't sure from the photos, but it is sit-down, and they have booths. The service was excellent. The food is like seafood comfort food--heavy on the lobster mac and cheese, fish and chips, seafood alfredo type of thing as opposed to the King's Fish House type of fare. Their octopus appetizer was excellently prepared. Quite tender. The lobster deviled eggs were good as were the calamari fries. If you like lighter food, they have oysters, poke, and cioppino. They also offer sides of sauteed vegetables. Two at our table ordered the tempura fish and chips. I prefer a little less batter, but and my husband liked it. We did not get their signature lobster roll as it looked bready and a little greasy (melted butter) but everyone around us ordered them. I might try one next time.

    It’s magical from the moment you walk in. As you make your way up a gorgeous staircase displaying gilded frames & Grecian statues…. The aesthetic & beautiful RH furniture is definitely a show stopper. As you make your way to the top you are greeted with sweet hostesses and wine bars on either side of you. Food is amazing! We had artichoke & burrata appetizers. So delicious! I always order a cheeseburger, it’s so good! Their salads & rotisserie chicken are yum! Finished the night with the Bananas Foster dessert, it was outstanding!!

    I made reservations. I chose this restaurant because none of my guests had eaten here before and to celebrate a friend's 91st birthday. for a friend. When I made the reservations I requested a table overlooking the nursery. There was no wait when we arrived. They accommodated us with a table I requested. The overall service was excellent. The waitress, Becca was pleasant, knowledgeable about the menu, and very attentive. She came back several times during our lunch to make sure everything was okay and to see if we needed anything. Everyone raved about the food. Three or us ordered the tuna sandwich and one ordered the burger. It was all excellent. Remembering we were there to celebrate a birthday, Becca brought out a complimentary dessert with a candle. The whole experience for me and my guests couldn't have been better. We will definitely be returning and bringing more friends.
