I was so lost in the moment the night I visited that I complete forgot to leave my review as I had much intended. Seeing as I have a reservation this evening, it is only right to share how my first visit went.

I was blown away! I made a reservation online, in the special notes I requested to have a table for two near the band. That’s all I stated, not mentioning the exact reason why. We arrived at 6:30 PM, I was surprising my boyfriend for his birthday. Everyone was so friendly and faces donning smiles when we arrived and we in fact had a table right in front of the band I shared then with the staff that my boyfriend is legally deaf, although he can hear just with some difficulty. Sitting near the band allows him to feel the vibrations from the band and when most hear the music, he feels and hears it.

I can tell you two impressions that we left Sea & Smoke… #1 they have some of the best Fried Rice!! We have since tried many other places, but by far Sea & Smoke is still our favorite! My boyfriend drinks Crown Apple. Sea & Smoke didn’t have it, so they walked right over the The Livingroom and made sure he had his drink. The food, the staff were all impeccable! All went above and beyond and that is so rare these days.

#2 The band- New Groove Jazz Trio Wow, just wow! Beautiful. My heart was so happy just watching my boyfriend “feel” the music. You can tell the band was honored when he gave them that compliment. They played “Happy Birthday,” for him.

Thank you for making what could have been a mediocre night… MAGICAL ✨

We dined on Thursday night during Spring restaurant week. 4 adults, 3 kids, 1 baby. They had a large round table in the corner that worked out perfect for us! We didn’t distub other diners, and it was quiet enough that we could still talk!We loved their menu, and all 4 adults did the prix fix. Muscles were excellent! The sauce was so light and tasty! Lobster potstickers were lightly fried (I prefer just boiled) and had a lovely sauce. Two of us ordered them! One person ordered the ceviche–the 2 shrimp were like lobster tails! Very nice! 2 of us ordered the halibut and gnocchi. Wow. It was cooked to perfection and a very large piece of fish–leftovers!! One ordered the filet– again, a very large serving that was perfectly cooked! Every bite was eaten! My husband had the branzino- very nice! He had to tale 1/2 home! The kids had their own menu. 2 ordered the sliders and fries — omg– huge and delish! One ordered the mini corn dogs and apple slices–she is 4 and ate every bite!! We had one chocolate tort drizzled with raspberry sauce and topped with whipped cream (I’m a plain Jane and would prefer it bare, but the kids gobbled it up!) The others ordered the cheesecake, also drizzled and topped. The perfect ending to a wonderful meal. They also have some very interesting craft cocktails! If you have read any of my other reviews, you know I don’t lavish praise indiscriminately!

This is my first time ever leaving a review, and unfortunately, it’s due to a very disappointing experience.
Our server, Addy, provided service that fell far short of expectations.

We recently moved to the area and were excited to explore local restaurants — this was the first one we tried. We ordered a course menu and drinks, and while the food was served promptly, we did not see our server again afterward. She never returned to check on us or ask if we needed anything.

My husband’s steak was undercooked, and the center was still cold. Since our server was unavailable, we had to ask another staff member for help. Although a replacement steak was brought, there was no apology or acknowledgment from our server. We had to actively seek her out just to request a steak knife and order additional drinks, as none were provided with the second steak.

She did not return to our table again until she brought the bill.
By that point, we were already quite disappointed. Despite spending a significant amount, we were unable to enjoy our meal or the experience.

Although the food itself was good, the poor service left a lasting negative impression.
We will not be returning to this restaurant.

TLDR: We had a wonderful experience dining here for the first time. The food was truly exceptional. Lots of gluten free options. We already booked our next reservation.
The MENU is relatively small but has a great variety of options with delicious and unique combinations of flavors. They have simplified their menu to remove all unnecessary gluten (they explained), which makes it easier to have more GF options. It’s certainly on the pricey side, but the quality is clear.
The SERVICE was excellent. They were knowledgeable about what’s in the dishes and happy to check labels when I had specific allergy concerns. They were attentive and used a team approach to serve us.
The ATMOSPHERE is nice and cozy inside, since it’s not a huge space. And they have a lovely patio in front. It was too chilly for us outside, even with the heaters. They also have garage doors to open the space but closed the one next to us as it got colder (which I was thankful for). They have live music on Friday and Saturday, although it was a bit loud for us since we sat so close.
It’s one of our new favorites!
…UPDATE…
We’ve been back many times, and it’s always exceptional.
We took our whole family to celebrate our son’s college graduation, and they were very good about accommodating his dairy and egg allergies. We all loved our meal together.
The only thing I would change is the volume of the music. Every time it’s extremely loud, to the point it’s hard to hear people at your table. It’s wonderful live music, but it really needs to be turned down.

I’m so glad we found this wonderful restaurant! We will definitely have to come back to try the main dishes. We were so impressed with the options for appetizers that we decided to order all of the appetizers (except one). The food was unbelievable, service was fantastic and the layout of the restaurant is just beautiful. Every appetizer we tried was extremely flavorful and perfectly cooked. The boa was one of the best I’ve ever experienced. Can’t wait to come back to experience the main courses.

I’m all about ambiance and good vibes. Sea and Smoke NEVER disappoints! Most Saturdays they have live music which gives a chill tempo to tap your foot to. The food is exquisite!!! The staff treats you like you are the only person in the world while they are at your table. Dylan (our server), as well as the hostess were amazing! Fantastic food and an amazing experience!!!

I wanted to love it. Even though the (expensive) food was delicious, there were too many things that were just messed up…

Incomprehensibly, they opened both of the glass “garage doors” even though it was in the mid-60s outside. We asked our server if it was possible to close the one nearest our table, and he said he would ask his manager. I saw him immediately approach a woman working outside and speak with her. The garage doors remained open. I was uncomfortably cold. I saw a man at a table adjacent to our (ridiculously tiny) booth literally sitting on his hands. Yup. Chilly for sure.

With it being so chilly, my $95 meal quickly got cold. Nice.

My $95 meal was delicious. But it was stupid. What idiot thought I should have to buy TWO whole lobster tails, which was double what I could possibly consume? Irritating! Very expensive and the only option was to buy twice as much food as I needed or wanted. Really irritating!

The service was just okay. Barely. For example, it took FIFTEEN MINUTES for my wife’s mocktail to arrive. For example, my fork flew off the (very small) table onto the floor – directly in the line of sight of a server standing at the table next to our (tiny) booth. There’s no way he didn’t notice. But, he blew it off. Ignored it. He wasn’t “our” server, so why bother? Eventually, I got up from our table and walked over to another table (fully in the view of the server that ignored my need) and robbed the fork from the silverware on that table.

There was also this bizarre connection to the casual eatery next door where rock music was quietly playing. These wooden vertical blind slats were the only separation between the two establishments, and the casual eatery’s rock music overlapped with the music playing in our sorta-fine-dining restaurant. Kinda dumb. Our server said they were supposed to “fix it” months ago by drywalling between the two rooms. But I guess they really couldn’t be bothered. Who cares, right? We’ll gouge the hell outta people that either have too much money or are here for the first time. No biggie, right?

So, good food but poor management and so-so service. I have pretty high expectations when I’m dropping a hundred bucks a plate for a meal. This place fell short – 100% due to front-of-the-house management failure.

Thank you to restaurant week we found this amazing restaurant. We enjoy sitting at the bar we like the camaraderie and getting to know the staff. Upon arrival we met Michael. He was full of energy upbeat, and a great representation about the food that we were going to be presented. His cocktails were fun and the food was amazing. He informed us that they have jazz and we are now coming back on Saturday night, the restaurant has amazing ambience, and we are excited to enjoy the music as well as the experience again. Thank you Michael from Dave and Sharon!

Amazing food and atmosphere. Wife had the salmon, I had the filet. Cleaned our whole plate. Great wine selection and service was the best we’ve ever had. The atmosphere is fine dining, but the sports TVs didn’t fit the vibe. Besides that, we enjoyed our anniversary dinner! Totally recommend.

We came in for dinner a couple of years ago and the food and service were outstanding. Tonight both the service and the food were average. It IS “restaurant week” which might explain the slower service, but they should have been prepared for this event. And we expected the food to be much better.
Atmosphere and music were still excellent. Great vibe.
