“ Great service and food was exceptional! The diver scallops and pork belly are fabulous and a MUST HAVE! The mussels were flavorful and remember to ask for more bread to soak up the broth. ”
“ Almost every dish we had here not only looked amazing, but tasted amazing. The only thing I was disappointed with was the clam chowder even though I added bacon it wasn’t the clam chowder that you would expect to get somewhere like in Monterey Bay. The bread was delicious though, all the other food had amazing flavor and the plating was amazing as well. The service was great as well. If you look out the windows, there’s a perfect view of the ocean. Will definitely come back here if I’m ever in ever in the area again. ”
