Customer Reviews
Food was absolutely bangin and the waitress was hilarious! For the appetizer we had the burrata and garlic knots 🔥 for dinner we had the vodka cream and surf n turk short ribs/stuffed shrimp. Outstanding. Red velvet cake was okay.
This was the smallest piece of chicken I’ve ever seen served on a chicken francais dish And it was completely dry, there was no sauce on it, it literally just tasted like a chicken cutlet. The pasta was disgusting and tasted like there were some type of a chemical on it or maybe they used bottled lemon juice instead of fresh lemon. But something tasted off and none of us could eat it and we dumped it in the trash. Very Disappointed.
We arrived at 6:30 with a reservation and ended up waiting 45 minutes to be seated. This, after being told several times, “it will only be a few more minutes.” Eventually we were told, “sorry, it’s a busy night.” (Obviously, Einstein, that’s why people make reservations). Once seated things were bumpy out of the kitchen. Waited too long for appetizers, and once delivered, after one bite, the main courses came out. Many items on the menu had no price noted. The special Valentine’s Day menu had varied options, no prices, and when asked we’re told by the waitress, “depends on what you order,” then she whisked away. The food was decent and service good, which is why I gave 3 stars. But they need to study and understand the dynamics of a reservation system. In similar situations it would be nic
We were just passing by and took a chance for lunch. The Food and service were incredible. The Server was super friendly, very efficent, and just an all around fun person. The food was freshly made, was served hot and had great flavors. Pizza was top notch loved the crust. Drinks were also very good. Glad we stopped by and I'm sure next time we walk the boardwalk well be back again. The owner also stopped and chatted and was very nice too. Thanks...
My friend had heard about this place from a mutual friend of ours and invited me to go with her tonight. I loved it! Drink was delicious- not too strong, the food was delicious as well! Not too big of a portion but enough for people like me who love leftovers the next day. Our waitress was friendly, attentive enough to be efficient. I wish I lived closer because I’d love to go back for more Alfredo chicken and pasta!
