"Food great
Service excellent - kudos to Stephanie
Atmosphere- can do much better job- looks very dull- not rustic.
House Bread with garlic spread is a surprisingly refreshing take
Lamb is great
Oysters - little over done on garnish- but good
Desserts are amazing
Overall a great place. Owners need to work on the ambience- not good."

"Always the best food and service with a wide variety of dishes. Great for large groups and parties with separate rooms. Desserts are all 5 STAR and the seafood dishes are to die for but I didn't. :)"
