    Fourth dinner here now, and it’s still unbelievably delicious. The steak tartare is so full of flavor and tender, it’s our favorite item on the menu. My husband had the duck, and it was phenomenal. My halibut was so good, and I don’t know how the shrimp was prepared, but I loved them. We brought our kids, who really enjoyed their dinners of skirt steak and pasta, and dessert was excellent as well. We were celebrating my husband’s birthday, and they acknowledged it very nicely without embarrassing him by singing. Our waitress was so great as well. It was a perfect night and we can’t wait to come back again soon!

    Always a wonderful experience with creative food and exceptional service. For New Years, we had the special Dover Sole with Jonah crab meat. It was a spectacular dish! This is our favorite restaurant on the Cape.
