Difficult to reach by phone. Either no answer, put on hold for a long period of time, then dumped into voice mail.

It was difficult to hear the people at our table as the noise was very loud. We were seated inside.

A lovely place to have lunch. Unfortunately, it was cool outside, so had to eat inside, but did have a window table. It is one of our favourite restaurants in the area.

From the start to the end of our evening, all was well done. They have an extended golf cart to ferry people from the parking lot to the entrance of the restaurant. However, the walk on the pier is delightful. Every staff member has smiles and great attitudes. They are really glad to see everyone enjoying the food and the views. Live music at the outside bar for a nice way to watch the sun set. Really happy we are locals and can visit all year round.

Lovely restaurant with really good food. They held our table even tho' we were a little late. Murphy, our server, was awesome and even had a dessert for our anniversary! We were I side because it was a little chilly but it would be great to be outside when it's warmer!

We ate outside under the canopy, and it was delightful. It had been raining, so most people were inside. We loved having the area to ourselves. Also LOVE the $9.00 a bottle Wednesday Wine night. The onion soup and wings were delicious. Our server was perfect. We will be back.
