Our Guestbook
“ We have somehow neglected this restaurant on numerous vacations to the immediate area so this year we did our best to make amends. The location overlooking the harbor is beautiful and service throughout our meal was grand. We started off by sharing a delicious goat cheese and beet salad that included house pickled beets and onion on a base of arugula topped with a balsamic and honey dressing. Each of us chose the seared salmon with maple chipotle glaze as our entree with accompanying sides of mashed potato and grilled summer squash. Perfectly prepared and delicious. ”
“ Food was very good to say the least. We enjoyed the atmosphere and the views of the harbor while eating. The place was clean and we received food very quickly. My only complaint is how slow our waitress was...waited 10 minutes for just menus and waited another 15 to get my change. Other than that i recommend. ”
“ Based on reviews and looking at the menu we ventured in. Our waitress was covering several tables but always with a smile and efficiency. Our food was incredible including dessert. Definitely a place to go back to. ”
“ Loved the outdoor seating. Amazing views, great food, and the outdoor seating was dog friendly. I really enjoyed their blueberry margarita. ”
“ View was astonishing. The lobster Alfredo was a hit among our group. The blueberry margarita was fabulous, the perfect punch of tang. Bella, our server, provided a wonderful dinner service and local recommendations. ”
“ Lovely view of the waterfront and boats during your dining experience. Our dinner was well cooked and served quickly. We were able to be seated immediately because we were ok with eating inside. They seated us right by the window with a great view. Paloma was refreshing with a lovely candied grapefruit garnish. ”
“ This is a cool spot located on the river and the ambiance is wonderful. We wanted to sit outside but the temperature had dropped so we opted for inside seating. We also tried to get a reservation but they were full so we waited about 20 minutes for a table. It was somewhat confusing to figure out the exact location of this place and parking was minimal and not convenient. I suggest walking or taking an Uber if possible or going early. We waited a long time at the bar for a glass of wine and I wish they would have had another person to help in that area as many were waiting for their spirits. We ordered side salads that were delicious and fresh. I ordered the lobster chowder and this was satisfying and a good serving. I would have loved more lobster but it was fine. My sister ordered the dockside burger and she enjoyed it. It was cooked well and was a good serving. We enjoyed our meal and visit here. ”
