Who has eaten there? I was there last weekend for dinner and was really pleased with the food and service. Ordered the Creole blackened chicken and calamari - sooo good! And keylime pie :). Seemed a bit small inside, (looks huge from the outside), but spacing was perfect. Also one of the nicest washrooms ever, and very accomodating to children and infants. Also toilet flush on the floor! When will we see more of this? Its genius! :thumbsup:

Price 9/10
Atmosphere 9/10
Food 9/10
Service 9/10

Overall 9/10

The Bellinis there are my favorite

And I think the washrooms are very nice.

I think the food is ok but I go there more for the drinks.

Agreed - it meets every requirement of mine for a place to eat. Good looking girls, good food, good atmosphere - especially in the evening. Blackened chicken is the best thing on the menu - I agree. Calamari is good, but their full plate is a little much for one person to eat. (A lot of grease and batter.)

i have been there before couple of times and always had a good time
but today went down with a few coworkers for a tasting
and just WOW
was amazed by the amount of work they put into every single operation
i do work in the industry so they gave us a big tour of the restaurant (including kitchen and coolers etc.)
and that place is being run very very professionaly and the food was just top notch

westcoast pockets .. if u havent tried em
TRY THEM !
and pistachio crusted halibut was amazing as well

big ups to that place !!

Hope they have a lounge, cause there's nothing i hate more than going to a restaurant and listening to screaming kids or kids running around... There are A LOT of bad parents out there. Last i checked, going to a nice sit down restaurant didn't have the golden arches outside...
