    We celebrated our 49th anniversity and it exceeded our expectations. The ambiance and the attention to detail made the evening special and memorable. Of course the food and service was outstanding as well. We will definately return for special occasions or when we simply want a relaxing night out.

    The view is what everybody comes for, and the sunset did not disappoint. We had the whitefish pate to start which was excellent and it had plenty of crackers and bread to enjoy. Our halibut dinner was delicious but the salmon was less than stellar. The salmon was very over cooked along with the rice pilaf. Very friendly and professional staff .
