When I inquired about other vegetable options, I was informed that asparagus was available for a $4 extra charge. I found the limited choices for sides disappointing, which is why I deducted one star. Nevertheless, the food was still fantastic. My dad ordered the apple pie, but it wasn't very impressive. The ice cream, on the other hand, was delicious (when isn't it?).

Highly recommend the restaurant and seafood.

Our waiter was attentive and knowledgeable, assisting us with food recommendations and convincing us to try the dessert—the salted caramel cheesecake—which I definitely do not regret. I can't wait to go back!

The halibut, risotto, green tomatoes, capers, olives, and white wine came together perfectly, along with the greens. It was just fantastic. Please make sure to keep this dish available! Great job to the chef!
