What reviewers say elsewhere

  • “Nice, broad menu, excellent service. The atmosphere on the large patio is quite pleasant.”

    — Douglas Erickson, October 2, 2026 · google

  • “We had a family gathering in a private room overlooking the water. The staff was friendly and accommodating. For a largish group I would recommend limiting the choices on the menu. Because everyone ordered separately it took some time…”
