I've had great paella one week but then it tastes totally different (in a bad way) the next. My husband and I roll the dice with ordering, hoping that the good chefs arein the back. Come on Thursdays for the 2-for-1 baked clams and the live band- they're both fantastic. But be prepared to spend$100 pp, no matter what.

The shrimp was over cooked, the cocktail sauce was bland. On the other hand my Surf Turf was delicious. The drinks were delicious. Only onecomplaint, but it was rectified quite quickly. We were seated, and an unnecessarily loud group of women were seated right behindus. We asked to be moved. Our waiter was able to move us swiftly. I will return.

The food wasn't all that good. The bill came and had gratuity already on it. I truly believe in giving well when theservice is good. This manager deserved NOTHING. We left and went to another restaurant just for dessert and coffee. I hope thisestablishment reads these reviews and does better.

I had the surf n turf (steak and lobster) the steak was a little over cooked I wanted med rare I got medium butthe lobster spinach and mashed potatoes were real good. Ambiance was relaxing. Watched a few people coming back n forth intheir boats or jet skis. Def wouldn’t mind coming back here. Highly recommended

We were a party of three, with two adults and one toddler, the final bill came out around $200. I do not mind to pay $200 for adinner, but neither the food nor the service meet our expectations. The seafood wasn’t fresh and the taste were just alright.No bread was served during the meal, we thought this place might not serve bread until we saw the tables around us got it whilewe were checking out. The busser was, obviously, not professionally trained, as she simply picked up the fork that my sondropped and put it back to his table, instead of giving us a clean one. Our plates were taken away right after we finish thefood, but no one even asked if we want to order dessert or get the bill. I had to go to the cashier to hand my card to theserver and told him I am ready to pay. The place charges service fee for card transaction, but the ATM machine is not in work.
