    Service was good, energetic and enthusiastic...., however we did feel rushed. The food came out quick and hot and overall was exactly as expected. The quality and quantity satisfied and we had no complaints. There is usually a wait for weekend nights, so booking preferred seating via the open table app had us seated perfectly on time...to the dismay of many people who had been waiting for some time. Overall, this chain is on par for a great meal that is a refreshing change over other chains in the area. Give it a try if your in the mood for seafood!
