Our party of four adults and one child, ordered across the menu, chicken, lamb, pasta and fish, all were excellent, as well as the recommended desert bread pudding. Atmosphere, and services was great!

Very nice upscale restaurant. Appears to be mostly older locals. They had a saxophonist playing lovely music and sat us in a a beautiful booth with curtains draped to the side and pillows providing a cozy atmosphere!

We were a party of 7 and this can sometimes be a burden on a server, the kitchen and the guest. Our service and meal was amazing. I am sorry I don't have our servers name but she was friendly, gave great suggestions and patient as we asked questions and made our decisions. Extensive wine list and high quality wines. We had the Mahi, Shrimp Fra Diavalo, Steak, and an assortment of appetizers. Everything was cooked to perfection and came out at the same time! We actually got to meet the chef, Tina. Informative about our meal and the establishment. I'm sorry we do not live in the area as we won't get back as often as we would like to.

We didn't have reservations, but they found seats for my wife and I. We were pleased to hear a singer softly playing guitar & singing.Shelly quickly arrived and offered the special of the day. We deferred: wife ordered grilled shrimp and pasta...more than she could eat! She said it was delicious.I ordered Ribeye, medium. It turned out to be one of the best ribeyes I have ever eaten! Easily in the top 5, maybe top 3! Not cheap, but no complaints.We both ordered a house margarita and it was fabulous!Shelly was attentive, but not invasive...perfect service for a delightful meal makes for a memorable experience.( $125 including tip)

We enjoyed our dinner, shishito peppers were great and so hard to find. Had strawberry fields salad, husband enjoyed his soup. He had the fish special and said it was awesome. Had the rib-eye, great seasoning but ribeye was disappointing, little to grisly for me. Biggest complaint was the music. Musician was good but the place is just too small for a musician. Would have enjoyed the dinner much more without the live music.

Incredible food and service! LIve music! Awesome!! Making online reservations was a breeze for this out of state couple. Thank you.

When everything is done to a level of excellence, the review tends to be short. To receive fully professional treatment in a timely matter is one thing but the quality of the food and drinks were over the top. A perfect balance between service and quality. What their chefs can do with a steak is amazing. Great job done by all.

We have tried numerous spots on the beach for seafood. All are good. But this spot, a few blocks in town, was two tiers above the others. Lamb lollipops were done just right. The grouper was seasoned perfect. Risotto and chowder were excellent first courses. Staff was relaxed and very capable.

The food was amazing. I wanted something besides the same fried seafood and this place did not disappoint. The food, service and atmosphere could not have been better. Small plates or entree portions were perfect. Subtle, live music was perfect. Do yourself a favor and give this place a try.

Somebody recommended that we go to the Cork room before we went to the play at the community center, I was very impressed with the atmosphere and a great bartender. I thought it was really mediocre for the price. Shrimp scampi Was good but nothing to brag about, my friend got the cheese ravioli. There was no bread service. That was very disappointing !!Sorry but Walmarts Is two blocks away,. I know it’s Walmart but at least they have fresh baked bread. It’s better than none. it didn’t seem like she was too surprised (The bartender ) there was no bread service,,, once again bar service was great and very knowledgeable helpful my friends enjoyed half-price glasses of wine. I got the strawberry shortcake as a dessert. And it was good. Definitely plenty of heavy whipping cream . Not the typical white whipped cream but I did enjoy it
