Fish to Try

“Amazing service from start to finish. Warmly greeted by the hostess, then had the sweetest, most attentive server named Lucas. We followed his recommendations and enjoyed the most delicious maple pecan crusted salmon, along with delicious scallops and scrumptious desserts. The manager named Cat stopped by our table twice and was warm and inviting. She encouraged us to come for their lunch on a weekend, which we will absolutely do. This is absolutely our favorite local restaurant for consistently delicious food and wonderful service.”

“We had the most delicious meal. I had the pecan crusted salmon and my husband had the ribeye. Best meal out in a long while. Darcie our server made the experience even better. I loved the expresso martini and am having one for dessert!”

“So excited to have a restaurant like this in our little big town. Appetizers of the short rib tacos were delish, the dipping sauce was perf! The drinks - lemon drop martinis and ice cold beer (Stella) were great. For the main course we selected off the handheld menu, from south Florida the blackened grouper sandwich was in my top 3 ever; fresh bun, fresh fish , red onion , crisp lettuce and tomato with sauce was on point! The cheesesteak was amazing as well! Highly recommend all the way around!”
