The greeting from the hostess was warm and friendly, and she seated us in a lovely spot where our children could enjoy the fireworks. We were well taken care of throughout the meal.

Overall, we would definitely return.

The food is exceptional, and the holiday atmosphere overlooking Rye Beach and Long Island Sound is simply delightful. We visited during a holiday, and despite the restaurant being crowded, the service was excellent, and our meals arrived promptly and hot. The fried calamari was both crispy and tender, the shrimp scampi over linguini was flawless, and the zuppa di pesce was outstanding. To top it all off, we were treated to fireworks from Rye Playland, which was a lovely bonus.
