Our party of 3 adults and a toddler requested a table outdoors and were seated immediately, a welcomed surprise as it was a Friday night and the area was busy. Upon being seated our waiter informed us it was the restaurants first night open after a two week shutdown and new ownership.
To start, we ordered a tap beer and two sadly underwhelming cocktails; one barely chilled martini and a sangria served in a wine glass. Drats. Stick with the beer.
Our order was taken and consisted of a ribeye, vodka pasta, and seafood mac and cheese. The ribeye arrived, followed 10 minutes later by the pasta. When

The food tasted good, the atmosphere on the water is wonderful, but the Honeydew Melon alcoholic beverage only tasted of boozy sugar. There are a lot of great honeydew melon syrups out there. The pineapple beverage was GREAT. A bit pricey for tilapia, but the lobster and crab stuffing and ravioli with sauce were savory and delicately flavored. Nice experience!

Warm friendly atmosphere and staff. Great location on the water. The food was not anything I would write home about and the price the the average food was a bit off for me. My wife had the chicken carbonara and it tasted fishy? The wait staff did make an attempt to right this but it was way to late as most of the table had finished eating by the time she had made it back to check how our food was.

I ordered the Chicken Fettuccine Carbonara. It had a nice creamy texture without being overly rich like most tend to be. While it was lacking spices, the overall flavour was very pleasant. The bread that they brought out was soft, but it was also dense, flavourless, and oily. I ordered a Shirley Temple which seemed to be made with 7-Up and Grenadine. As a friendly suggestion to the restaurant, in my opinion the best Shirley Temple recipe is ginger beer with a dash of Grenadine garnished with maraschino cherries.

Was not impressed . If you're a local they catering to you. This was are first time. The bartender was into the locals/ regulars. Also, it was just two of us. Wanted to sit outside and enjoy the view. We've been told no seats.
6 spots outside were open. Great drink. Calamari was overcooked and cold when we got it. Raw oysters were fabulous. I'm trying to get a positive spin on our experience here. But I don't have too many good things to say at this point. I will have to try it again hopefully it will be better.
