I loved my experience here. The Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail was fresh and perfectly chilled. For my entrée I ordered the Braised Beef Short Rib with mashed potatoes and crispy onions. Comfort food at a whole different level. The staff was attentive and very welcoming!

Best view in town! Be sure and get the bread service….pasta and shrimp tacos were yummy. Definitely reserve an outside table even if it’s going to rain. We sat out in a bad thunderstorm and we were covered.
