Our waiter, Alex, was outstanding--friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience feel seamless. I kicked things off with a glass of bubbles (prosecco with peach schnapps), paired with their seafood arancini--crispy, flavorful risotto balls filled with crab and scallops, served over fresh bruschetta-style tomatoes. Such a great start. For the entrée, we had the seafood fettuccine, loaded with lobster, scallops, crab, and shrimp in a rich, creamy champagne sauce--decadent and perfectly balanced. The bread service was also a highlight: focaccia and Kalamata olive bread served with olive oil and balsamic for dipping. To finish, I had an espresso martini alongside a creamy crème brûlée topped with a buttery shortbread cookie--an ideal ending to an already incredible meal. Everything about this experience was spot on. I can't wait to come back!

We ordered a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon that was recommended by the wine guy. It was pretty good. Calamari Fritti with Gremolata, & Chipotle Aioli was perfectly made. Crispy Brussels Sprouts with Aged 24 Month Reggiano Parmesan & Calabrian Chili Aioli was tasty. Ribeye with Olive Oil Mashed Potatoes, Chimichurri Roasted Vegetables, Italian Gorgonzola, Garlic & Herb Butter was good but way under cooked. Filet Mignin with Olive Oil Mashed Potatoes, Citrus Glazed Asparagus, Caramelized Shallot & Woodford Reserve Reduction was good and cooked perfectly. King Cut Prime Rib with Loaded Baked Potato, Chimichurri Vegetables, Au Jus & Fresh Horseradish was good seasoned well but over cooked. I wish they would of came and told me that they didn't have anymore medium rare cuts, instead of just bringing me a medium well piece. It still had a little red in the middle but not what I wanted. From prime rib its easy to tell that you are out of a medium rare cut. Its hard to send back when the people you are with has their food and you cant make them wait. That is the reason for the 3 stars!!!

We ordered our usual, Focaccia bread and the beetroot salad, which, as always, were absolutely 10/10. This time, we also tried the Madras coconut curry with vegetables. It wasn't overly sweet and had just the right amount of spice, which we really loved. The vegetables were perfectly cooked with a nice crunch. For dessert, we had the Lebane mousse, which was delicious and a perfect way to end the meal.

We got the Admiral's feast - a three course menu where you can choose a soup/ salad, main and dessert. The clam chowder was good and the Caesar salad was standard. Next, the sirloin was perfectly cooked as requested. This was served with some asparagus (which sadly lacked seasoning) and mashed potatoes. The salmon was also cooked to the desired done ness (medium rare) and served with fingerling potatoes and fresh vegetables.
