Best meal we’ve had in town. Phenomenal! Everything was delicious and the servers were all attentive and thoughtful. Don’t skip the pasta—they make it in house. The mussels were sublime in a silky, creamy sauce.

Food was extremely flavorful. Service was stellar. We sat on the patio enjoying being near the water so hard to beat that atmosphere. Really great experience all the way around.

Great drinks, even better food! The portions were filling for someone who loves to eat. But more over the flavors of the food were mouthwatering till the end. This duck and cuscus was a meal I will not forget!!!

We dropped in for brunch on Saturday with no reservation, but had just a brief wait for a table.

As much as I wanted to love the Bolognese I ordered, the noodle was a bit gummy and the ground ribeye and hanger were almost impossible to locate within the dish.

Delicious food…the bread was exceptional. I enjoyed my beet salad and a friend got the chicken fried sandwich. Everything was very tasty.

What a lovely restaurant with friendly people who work there. We had so much food and drinks. Everything was so delicious. Calamari was fresh, and the fried lemon peices were edible and refreshing. They divided the beets salad with arugula into two servings and it was one of the best. The oysters weren’t very impressive. If you have a high standard, I would skip the oysters as it is not the season yet. The duck confit was yummy and bouillabaisse had a great flavor. The vegan, gluten-free dessert (ice cream but can’t remember what it was called) tasted healthy and as close to the nature while providing a joy of consuming cold dessert. The cocktails were awesome and tasty. I highly recommend this place and I can’t wait to go back.

Everything was impeccable! At first glance you might think the food is expensive. We went to a fish and chips restaurant the day before and the check was exactly the same. BUT, the food here was unbelievably fresh and delicious and definitely more gourmet. They buy their produce, fish, and meats locally, and it shows. The champagne vinaigrette on the salad was so good! Our server was friendly and efficient. My husband and I are foodies. Eat here, you won’t regret it! Oh, and make reservations and maybe bring a sweater if you eat inside.
