Love the atmosphere! Sushi roll was fresh and delicious, especially loved the wasabi. Frose was really good too. Our server was super cute and funny. Service was quick. Can’t wait to go back.

The food was completely inedible. Almost $250 down the drain. The run down: Take out of raw clams were not put on ice which is a health hazard. Also no condiments were given with the clams. Hamburger was dry where my seven year old grandson almost choked. The burger was ordered with American cheese and if that wasn’t available then was requested with no cheese, however they put provolone cheese. “Roasted” beet salad had boiled beats and the dressing was only oil. The Halloumi cheese was rubber. The sesame tuna had no taste and their claim on side vegetables was merely shredded carrots. Definitely save your time and money and don’t let the fancy ambiance fool you.

The food is very good services sucks waited almost two hours for food

I remember the cove when it was striving and the food was great unfortunately, now every time we have dinner there- its always disappointing ?. The staff hardly spoke English and the service was absolutely terrible. We called and made reservations specifically asking for outdoor seating away from the sun. Nope that didn't happen. They had no space available but from the time we arrived to the time we left the prime spots were unoccupied. Our appetizers didn't come out all at once in fact we had to remind them that we were still waiting for 2 more orders. The entrée was served and I ending up eating half my steak waiting still for my side order in which I had to remind them of. The pasta dishes were a joke, smallest portion ever. Such a shame its down to a great location and nothing more.

We went for lunch on a weekend and we all had a great time! Food came out good and seafood was fresh! Nice selection of cocktails and desserts as well.

I wouldn't say this is my favorite restaurant.Although the service was quite tactful.But it was not quite excellent, as if something was missing.For example, the omelet was generally tasteless.But in any case, it's good that I visited this place.

Beautiful restaurant in the marina with a spectacular sunset view. We shared the tree dips plate and the baked clams for appetizers. Delicious and fresh. I had the linguini and seafood (Octopus, shrimp, and clams.) It was elegant and delicious. Great wine list, too!

First I was served with undercooked Tiger Prawns and when issue was addressed with the waiter they replaced with much smaller sized Tiger Prawns - don't like the attitude of the waiter as well. The atmosphere is nice but a lot of mosquitoes if you dine outdoor. Overall the foods aren't as good at such price point (not two $$ as advertised) , better dine at Prime in Huntington.

Very nice place, good food

First, the only pro: the wait staff was attentive. Our water glasses were refreshed regularly, our dishes were cleared promptly and coffee was produced when it was asked for. The view wasn't bad but not worth the trip since the food isn't worth it. Now, on to the good (bad) parts: The food was, to put it mildly, BAD. BURNT. OVERCOOKED. My burger was not just overcooked; it was burnt and barely edible. My dad's fish in his fish and chips was so overdone, the coating was as hard as a rock. I received 12 fries with my burger, a limp piece of lettuce, a sad looking slice of tomato, and my burger supposedly came with onion strings. I counted three pathetic looking strings that may have formerly been onions. If they were onions, I felt sorry for them. For dessert, I ordered the chocolate lava cake which came in a huge white bowl. Nice presentation except the cake was barely the size of my palm. A serving of vanilla ice cream cream accompanied the cake and it was the size of a tablespoon. The same size of ice cream came with the baklava as well. When our meal ended, I was still hungry but glad to be leaving. I'm never coming back here again.
