Great experience! We ended up sitting at the bar and really enjoyed it. Everything was delicious — the tuna was exceptional, the appetizers were beautifully executed, and the freshness and presentation really stood out. Great atmosphere and service as well. We will definitely be back.

Every dish on the menu was perfect! We especially loved the crab hush puppies starter. We also appreciated having great choices on the fixed price menu that did not cost extra like at other places. We did the wine pairings and they were well chosen and a great value.
