Addie was absolutely amazing. The food was seasoned well and nothing left on my plate to take home. The young lady at the bar was very welcoming. My first time there in celebration of my aunts birthday. Will be returning very soon.

This has been one of my favorite restaurants for the past two years. The menu has changed and now has bacon in a significant amount of the food, which limits selections for those who dont eat pork. Other previously loved items like the crab toast are gone. Overall, the experience is a good one. They were a little off with the cocktails and calamari was fried hard with no visible veggies. Butternut squash ravioli was good. Coconut cake was great!

My husband and I greatly enjoyed our visit. He's a vegetarian and its not always easy to find something he enjoys on the menu. He ordered the eggplant and Flatbread pizza. I ordered calamari frittes and sea bass fish. We were both extremely happy with our meal and service

Went at night in December so I couldn’t really see the nice view of the lake from the enclosed patio dining area. The ambiance inside was pretty nice. I don’t consider myself a picky person at all when it comes to food and I hardly ever complain, but I had the fish tacos and they were really lacking flavor and had a not so fresh fishy taste to them. I ate them because I was hungry, but they really need to do better with this option. I will give them another chance, because it appears there were some much better options available.

We were sad that mussels and crab toast weren’t on the menu anymore. The ribeye was almost $60. The cheesecake cotton candy was a hit with my kids.

Think the restaurant should pay for their music to not have loud commercials - also the windows need a wash or fix the condensation issue. Overall a great place and great location and service was excellent !

Second course should never come out before the first course is cleaned up. It is not polite to clean up around tables, understand waitstaff wants to get out of the restaurant but it's unpleasant for late diners. Food was great.

First and foremost, Olivia was a spectacular server for our table. She was very pleasant and knowledgeable about the menu options. She was very attentive, but not overwhelming. She definitely deserved 5 stars! I wish I got the name of the hostess because she was very nice, and we felt welcomed as soon as we arrived for our reservation. If it helps, she was blonde and had glasses. The food was spectacular. My co-worker had the Shrimp and Grits and said it was “very good”. I had the lobster and shrimp rolls, a definite must. Frankly, everyone was pleased with their meal. I definitely recommend coming here for a wonderful meal and pleasant ambience.
