   The service was amazing! The food was also amazing! My husband had the filet, and I had the sand dabs almondine. We had Caesar salad made table side. Yum!! The Pavlova desert, which is their signature desert, was just so so, in our opinion. But overall, this was an excellent dining experience, and we will definitely be back!!!

   The food and service was absolutely excellent! David was a terrific help in explaining the types of steaks available, their size and the best temperatures at which to serve each type. Try the clam chowder; the best I’ve ever had.

    Celebrated a birthday. Great place to do so. Was not too busy as we went on a Thursday. I put that we had a child and they were very accommodating there is a kids menu which I forgot to take a picture of. Kids menu consist of steak, chicken, pasta marinara or creamy. I think it was salmon and chips. My daughter got the creamy fettuccine with shrimp Before we ordered our server (I'm so sorry I cannot remember his name I think it started with an "S") Took out drink order then came back to show us the different cuts of steak they had from Nebraska. This was the birthday celebrants first time at the Whaling Station and it did no disappoint. Thank you staff!
