    Made last minute reservations and were promptly seated upon arrival. Restaurant was busy for this time of year, but service was prompt and friendly. Best part was the food. We ordered the mussels and calamari for appetizers excellent. Topped off with the Fra Diablo and Bouillabaisse . Both excellent choices. We have never had a bad experience or a bad meal. A staple for us when we come out to BI.

    Just okay. Nothing was very flavorful and I got the feeling I should be honored to eat there. No one was friendly or welcoming. Service needs major improvement. I received my glass of wine that I ordered when my dinner arrived AFTER I finished my meal ( which I ate verrry slowly). Just disappointed overall. Would not recommend nor return

    Was disappointed by our experience here. It rained pretty heavily right before our reservation and we were told that there was no space inside so we could sit outside if we wanted, but otherwise we need to figure it out for ourselves. What was surprising was that we had to go and ask for a towel to wipe down our own table and for new silverware and napkins that have been soaked by the rain. We were then served and expired beer and  were made to feel like we were inconveniencing the staff by sending back the beer that was chunky when we poured it into the cup. There was no offer to comp the replacement drink or any real apology for the expired drink.  Consider considering the prices that they charge at this restaurant definitely left bad taste in our mouths. I think this restaurant serves OK food, but suffers from existing in a location with no grapefruit options and ask they can get away with service like that.

    The service was great, and our waitress was very sweet and attentive. The food was good overall, although my friend’s steak was not cooked to the temperature she had requested. We sat outside, which was beautiful, relaxing, and definitely one of the highlights of the experience. Overall, it’s a nice restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere, but there is some room for improvement with the food preparation.

    Very much enjoyed the Lobster Bisque Curry soup. The blackened Mango salsa Swordfish was fresh, perfectly seasoned with a nice grilled sear. Fresh vegetables and ala dente rice was a perfect accompaniment. Milly was proficient and pleasant.
