Awesome ambiance, presentation, and quality. Our server guided us excellently through the menu and helped us create a nice flow of small plate options. Every course was terrifically presented. The lobster cocktail was the best we’ve had in years. We had peeled shrimp, smoked fish, fresh and smoked oysters. And the drinks were fantastic. The last meal we could think of close to this was a Michelin AAA rated dinner in Italy. I can’t recommend this highly enough!!! — with Debra Biggam Fulcoly.
