"The ambiance here is great! Perfect for date night. They were out of the wine that I ordered so the waiter brought me a more expensive one for the same price. I ordered a second glass and when the bill came was charged for the more expensive wine. My husband ordered a Stella and they were out of that too. We ordered the tartare duo appetizer. The Tuna tartare was amazing! I would not recommend the Salmon tartare though. Next I had clam chowder. The chowder was super gritty and full of sand. Since it is so fresh, I know there is normally a little grit, but I could barely eat it. My husband got the lamb and it was delicious, but didn't come with anything. Overall, ok, but way overpriced for what we got."

"Food was great and service was very nice. Though the view was scenic, would not want to be seated outside. The furniture was not very nice and the ambience was completely different from the dining room. The unique open kitchen was unique, however, the guy shouting out the orders was very disruptive to diners and the overall mood of the restaurant. The cocktails were awesome and my friends are still talking about the Grouper!"

"Food was great! Everything made in house and tasted great. Service was good and attentive. Did not have the wine that I ordered and food runners consistently attempted to bring food to the wrong tables, ours and those around us, which was annoying and disruptive. Overall the service could have been better, but our individual server was good. The place was noisy because the kitchen is open. Its interesting at first but ultimately takes away from the trendy or romantic ambiance. Great place for a foodie. Bar looked cool as well but did not spend any time there."

"The menu selections (fish and meat) were many and varied and the quality of the food good. We thought that the wine selections while fairly comprehensive were on the expensive side. Overall a good experience"
