The food you cannot beat everything was good from the appetizers to the main courses. Oh and don't forget the drinks! Highly recommended if you are in the area! And they had the World Cup playing! That was a super plus!

The restaurant itself is lovely, so classy. The ocean view was amazing. My waiter was very kind and attentive throughout the night. French Onion Soup: it had great flavors and i liked that they used gruyère unlike some places being cheap lol. The broth and onions were tasty but I wish the bread wasn't as mushy. I have had french onion soup where the bread is still crisp after being broiled. That's me being nit-picky! 4.5/5 Oysters: tasty, good side accompaniments! Some shell in there but i understand it's hard to shuck sometimes. 4.5/5 mocktails: for someone who doesn't care for alcohol the fake alcohol was a little too convincing but for someone who couldn't drink, they're great and pretty! desserts: both really well done and the raspberry or strawberry streak of sauce is very good. The key lime pie stole the show and that was a to go! but still great desserts. 5/5

We arrived approximately 15 minutes before our reservation time. When the hostess asked for my…read morename, she did not understand it the first time, so I attempted to show her my OpenTable reservation to make things easier. However, she quickly dismissed the gesture and stated that she only needed the name, which required me to spell it out for her. The interaction felt abrupt and unwelcoming, and it did not reflect the level of customer service I expected. The dining service and food were acceptable, and the restaurant itself is beautiful because of its location. However, the first impression at the host stand significantly affected the overall experience. I hope management addresses the importance of providing guests with a more courteous and welcoming arrival.

Small location, big on flavor…read more I tried the oysters, scallops, crab toast, melon and shrimp salad, and loup de mer. Every bite was loaded with flavors, making for one of the best dining experiences I've had in recent times. The vibe here is European.

With $1.50 oysters, it's almost like a no lose situation at this point so honestly, give it a try. That being said, oysters aren't the star of the show and that's crazy coming from someone who can eat 3 dozen oysters in one seating. Get the crab toast, it's magical. Get the happy hour burger, the sesame seed bun is the winner. The most memorable part of the meal?? The squash salad dish that was cooked to perfection. This was something I couldn't stop going back and honestly, I wanted to lick the plate clean. I would be mistaken though if I didn't mention the service. I truly wish I remembered her name, but she was the only one working that day (her name started with a K). She was so great and handled the whole floor like a pro. She's a good one and she deserves a raise for sure. In conclusion, go here and ask questions later. Promise you won't regret it.

I had the following below: *Local Bluefin Tuna : 4/5 - It tasted very fresh. This was more sashimi dripped in olive oil and has a splash of sea salt and chives. You can really taste the salt explode in your mouth with a hint of lime. It was good and refreshing. *Chowder Fries : 4/5 - I have never seen clam chowder fries but honestly was pretty tasty. The fries were more like seasoned fries, very crispy and soft. The clam chowder tasted good as well. *Lobster roll : 4/5 - Honestly it was a nice solid lobster roll. I was really surprised on the bread they have used for this. It was more a texas toast, buttered on each side. The lobster tastes fresh, the shallots were a nice addition on top. It also comes with a side of fries which were very crispy and soft. *Octopus Cocktail: 2/5 - Its made for 2 people. I thought it would taste good with the mango and jalapeno extract but man that spice leaves a mark in your throat. Key lime tequila was good as a had a key lime foam on top. Mezcal was nice and smokey. *Blue drink: 5/5 - Tasty, sweet, and the ice cream on top was a very nice addition on top. The drink was pretty much like a very sweet mai tai, enjoyed it. Apparently this place is going through some company changes because online there is no menu available. I have dropped it in the pictures below to get a better idea of whats available here. Although it is mostly seafood, not all of it is. It's a solid dinner for seafood lovers. The service was exceptional. On a side note I will say management needs to do something about the restrooms situation. I don't mind all gender restrooms, but its a concern when I can see the person next to me in the other stall. Its a huge glass mirror and underneath the mirror is a huge sink where you can wash your hands. There is a space between the mirror and sink where if someone needs to do their #2 they can actually see the other person. Not very private and somewhat concerning.

I get it the families are paying to stay here but can they find somewhere else to rough house other than in front of dinner guests who are paying $200 or more a head ? One star slash negative stars for the parking. $49 for two hours is criminal. Now for the food. The halibut ceviche was lovely and so was the steak tartare. I love that it's served with chips instead of heavy bread like some places. I got a side of bone marrow as well. Five stars for food and service, with the other two issues that lands them at a solid 3.75. Would come back, just go through the hassle to street park.

And then there was the food. Menu all sounded great but this kitchen isn't up to the task, and relys on salt to make up for shortcomings. Octopus was so salty it was inedible. Soup was equally salty and, at nearly $30 for a cup, is ridiculously over-priced. Swordfish Tacos had good flavot but were so light on fillings that it was a joke. Maybe, MAYBE, an ounce if fish per 'taco.' Only dish that was halfway decent was Lobster Rigatoni. Still salt forward, but good spice. Would definitely not recommend this place and won't go back.

Despite the restaurant being busy, we never felt any lag in service at all. The seafood? I'll start with the good. My brother enjoyed his sea bass, and my dad enjoyed his Alaskan cod. Both thought the portions were a little small for the price, but they liked their meals. The cioppino, on the other hand, was probably one of the worst I've ever had. The broth was oddly sour, and nearly all of the shellfish was overcooked. I almost spit the calamari out. It was that bad. The shrimp was good, and the chunks of fish were decent, but overall this dish was a huge miss. At almost $50, it's hard to justify. They either need to go back to the drawing board or take it off the menu. The standout was the daily cherry sorbet. WOW. Easily some of the best sorbet I've ever had. One random thing: whatever linen they use sheds everywhere. I loved how soft it felt until I walked outside and realized I was covered in lint. Would I come back? No. That said, it was still a lovely dinner with family. The ambiance was nice, and the service was genuinely exceptional. If you're coming for the hospitality, you'll probably leave happy. If you're coming for the cioppino, I'd strongly recommend ordering something else.
