    Amazing dinner for Sweetest Day! Great value getting the Sweetest Day special for $75 each. The Filet and shrimp were perfectly cut and cooked. The Caesar salad was amazing! Our server Timmy recommended a delicious white wine and the Dubai Chocolate cake was mouth wateringly delicious as usual. Emilio’s Prime and San Marino Lounge are both pure gems! So nice to get such great service and delicious food close to home❤️

    We had a party of 5 dining with everyone having a different choice of food. Some items were: Meatloaf, Walleye, Salmon, Salmon Cakes, Smash Burger and fries, Scallops and Chili. Everything was excellent. This restaurant has appetizers, small plates and entrees which makes it a perfect opportunity to try a lot of items and share. I definitely recommend dining here for the great food, service, specialty drinks, atmosphere and view of the water.
