This place is amazing! The food was absolutely incredible (especially the scallops). Our server was also so sweet. I didn’t catch her name, but she was a young black woman. She deserves a raise! My boyfriend and her worked together to give me an amazing proposal and I could not be more grateful. The rest of the staff was so helpful as well. I dropped my napkin on the floor and a staff member saw from inside and came all the way outside to bring me a new one. Will definitely be returning.

The atmosphere is one of old world golf club lounge – not surprising. A bit staid – but the outdoor deck looks awesome ! My scallops were wonderful. Wine choice was great. Enjoyed a pear salad. The little gluten free cornbread inspired starter surprise was delicious. We will return. Finally – the service was friendly, knowledgeable, and appropriately attentive.

My girlfriend and I came for a staycation and was introduced to this place by the concierge. Our experience was fantastic and that’s what it was an experience! The staff was so attentive and kind, as well as knowledgeable. The cuisine was absolutely delightful, i enjoyed a beautifully cooked rib eye, they also make the most amazing biscuits to die for… Thank you for a lovely evening of fine dining.

The food and service was on par with a Michelin star restaurant. Each dish was balanced yet bold. Many ingredients were locally sourced. The service was exceptional with every staff member having an inviting demeanor. Not only was the staff kind they were also very knowledgeable. Our waiter, Ryan, did an amazing job making our group feel like we were the most important people in the building.

Always love dining when we come out west to visit family. Great atmosphere and service. Food is delicious. However, on our most recent trip last night, 3 of us had the duck, which consisted of only two slices of meat each plate. I don’t recall receiving such small portions in the past.

The food and service really really impressed us. We were the last table sat for lunch so we had the entire restaurant to ourselves. A bit awkward as it was very very quiet but the staff were extremely attentive, friendly, and did not rush us at all. We enjoyed the drinks, salads and entrees we ordered a lot. The serving sizes were large and flavorful, making the price worth it.
We came for the view, and on a cloudy day, it wasn’t quite the coastal feel that other reviewers might have given you. Instead, with a view of the pool, the golf course, and ocean in the deep background, you get the vibe that you’re at a fancy cabin retreat. And that’s also fun but a bit more serious than coastal. Note that for lunch there are no tablecloths but for dinner they dress every table up with white linens. In case that vibe affects your choice of outfit.

The menu was creative, the food was delicious, and the service was professional. What else can I ask for more. If you lucky enough sitting in the outdoor patio, the sunset view in the afternoon, or the golf course view in the daytime are both stunning!! I enjoyed the live music as well. Acoustic music was played in just the right volume. Love this place and enjoy the food very much.

I enjoyed coming here for lunch with my parents. I don’t often dine at fancy restaurants, so I don’t have much to compare to, but overall it was really great — I went with the mussels dish which was incredible. The service was on point. Everything about it was a good experience. The weather was good, and parking was a little tricky because there were so many golfers on that Friday mid-day time.
