We celebrated my birthday here last week. The seafood salad was fresh and full of flavor , and my partner couldn't stop talking about how delicious his fish which was cooked just right. Our server was friendly, fast, and gave us great menu tips. The room was clean, cozy, and quiet enough to talk. The only thing was the greeter at the door don't even speak to you, he just looks at you like "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE" he doesn't even say thank you/ come again or whatsoever when we left.

Wife /I came for early Sunday oyster / drink special at the bar. Since we arrived 1600 - only ones in the establishment. Alex the bartender was outstanding in service - very personable and professional.
The Caviar Martini and Rams Gate Pinot Noir and the Oysters were excellent and super tasting - so, we ordered 2 dozen more oysters. 😁😁
Wife loved the Garden Maki Sushi - a vegetarian version w no rice around the edges. Their New England Clam Chowder w oyster crackers was excellent.
Great experience.

Excellent seafood prepared perfectly at exorbitant prices. Luxurious alternative to a steak house, though they also serve surf and turf.
