I had such an amazing experience! Making a reservation for 2 was a quick and easy process.
Wait times were short and the food was delicious! I ordered the fruit/veggie plate and the desserts plate.
So much food for 2 and perfectly priced.
My sister ordered a drink and she loved it.
Our waitress was so nice and she checked on us often despite the busy night.
The atmosphere was amazing.
We had such a great time and are already planning to return!

Hi Emma, thank you for your visit and the kind words.
Looking forward to seeing you again soon!

Went here for my wife's and her sister's birthday dinner and really enjoyed the cocktails (nice & strong) and gorgeous views from the outdoor dining deck.
I'm more of a meat and potatoes guy, so I most enjoyed the meat portion of their 3 course meal option- I highly recommend the blackened shrimp.
Took off a star as it's really expensive for what you get, but overall, I would return.
If cheese and chocolate are your favorite food groups, then this is the spot for you LOL :)

Thank you Stewart for your visit, review, and pics - looking forward to your next visit!

I came here 2 years ago when I was thinking about moving here.
I was so impressed then, I even gave a 5 star review but now I’m not at all… I went for my birthday last night, I can’t eat most foods because of high histamines, I eat filet and chicken.
Unfortunately there was no filet when I came in, that’s not the worst thing in the world.
Ahi tuna usually is okay for me as I eat it quite frequently.
The server let me know that the ahi tuna could be eaten raw.
Upon inspection the ahi tuna did not seem to be the proper grade to be eaten raw and did not taste well.
I ate one cube and did not eat anymore.
I also had the option of a charcuterie board in the four course meal.
It was it warm when it came to the table, the cheese did not taste good, I feel like it was made in the morning at sat out, I told her I didn’t care for it, she took it back and offered salad but I declined.
We ended up just packing up the whole dessert and went home.
My bill was $125.50 before tip and we paid for every single item even though I didn’t eat the charcuterie board and ate half of my entree.
This morning my husband and I were both sick.
I am beyond disappointed.

Thank you Kylie for the review! Updated reply in response to most recent review: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.
We’re truly sorry to hear about your recent experience and that it did not live up to your expectations, especially on such a special occasion as your birthday. We take food safety and quality very seriously and are concerned to hear about the issues with the Ahi tuna and charcuterie board.
I want to assure you that the Ahi is AAA Premium, Sashimi Grade.
As for the charcuterie board, we have reviewed how to properly prepare the boards with our staff to ensure they are fresh and served at the proper temperature. Regarding your bill, you were not charged for the charcuterie platter.
Please know that we value your input and are committed to improving.
In the notes on your reservation you stated, “It’s my birthday and it’s been a sad day to be honest.” That makes it especially disheartening to hear that we were unable to turn your day around. The server who attended to you was in tears after leaving your table, taking to heart your disappointment.
Thank you again for your feedback.
