Outstanding!! I have spent my time in kitchens here and abroad. My wife and I enjoy the occasional first time thrill of finding a nearby, go to restaurant. The menu accounts for Chef Muroni’s Italian heritage and training while allowing the great plates of America the opportunity to shine at the hands of a superior kitchen staff. Pleasant from the host stand to exit…this very casual and relaxed atmosphere is simply comfy. Our mixed drinks were probably the best we’ve enjoyed since moving to the Chesapeake area and I have been a Hampton Roads resident for 20 years. A bit off the beaten path located next door to a marina and sharing space to accommodate larger banquet hall formal affairs. It’s location right on the water is pristine and I can’t wait for the Spring. Amazingly good value…treat yourself…you deserve this! We will definitely return!!

Valentines Day food was great. Waitress was knowledgeable. Atmosphere was very busy. The fried shrimp was the best I have ever had. Sea bass with the risotto was excellent

Me and my brother in law ate here on August 28th. Neither of us had any prior knowledge of the restaurant. First impression from the parking lot was questionable, but everything after that was exemplary. We followed the signs to the entrance, up the elevator, and were greeted with a smile from the hostess. We chose to sit outside which was lovely. Our server (I believe her name was Molly) gave us the best service I’ve received from anywhere in quite some time. She was attentive when we needed her, and she didnt interrupt our conversations while we were enjoying our meal. Our drinks stayed filled and she was knowledgeable of everything we asked about on the menu. We shared the mussels gorgonzola from their specials menu, the portion was large, the sauce and toppings were abundant. I had the pork chops for my entrée, they were thin but moist and flavorful. The mango fig sauce it was served with was warm and sweet. It paired excellently with the pork. My brother had the crabcakes, he enjoyed them. Even the dinner rolls were delicious! The dessert menu was a good read, but I’m not too fond of cake, so I didn’t get any dessert (I was too full anyways). I took some crab bisque home to my wife and she said it was great.
It is so nice when a spontaneous choice of restaurant pays off. If I lived nearby, I would be a regular.

This restaurant is located in a beautiful spot. Absolutely romantic and fancy. My family and I were seated outside, which was mostly lovely. The waitress was initially rather attentive. After our food orders arrived, not so much. We waited a long time for her to come back so we could request certain condiments.
Despite the beautiful backdrop there were just so many flies. We felt targeted and attacked by them. It was a race to finish our food before the flies did.
I know that’s largely beyond the restaurant’s control but it would have been nice to have some citronella candles, dainty fans or just any measures in place to acknowledge the issue and show care for the patrons. The salmon was moist, the pork belly was delicious and the drinks were pretty good. All in all, I would recommend it to others.

Enjoy a wonderful meal and an amazing sunset.
Second time dining here and I don’t have a single flaw to advise about. My wife and I decided to go for dinner at the last minute and even though we didn’t have reservations the staff was able to fit us in.
Every item that we ordered came out cooked to perfection. The cocktails were amazing and well crafted. Unfortunately I forgot our servers name but she was on point.

Best food and service I’ve had in years. Came for valentines and had Christy as our server- she was great. Can’t wait to come back.
Husband had the filet – each bite melts in your mouth- yes, I tried some of his meal. lol.
I had the Tale of the Sea- there was so much lobster meat in this dish, I was totally not expecting that. I got the piccata sauce (recommended by Christy, my server)- it was delicious.
I’m full but I’m definitely sliding home with a piece of cake for later

Pleasantly surprised. Every dish was very well executed and was delicious. The gnocchi carbonara was actually better than next day. Seems like the flavor came together a little bit more. If you go, the food will be delicious, but make sure you bring your pocketbook. It’s not cheap. 🙂

I wanted to share a wonderful review but my experience was not the best.
The shrimp cocktail was excellent. The seasonal pumpkin Old Fashion was excellent as well. My date had the salmon which was also excellent. My main course was the filet mignon. I asked if the “glaze” could be on the side, server said it was not possible to do that.
My steak was covered w the sauce, which took away any flavor the steak had. (two others in our party ordered the same and theirs did not have as much glaze as mine.) I only had two bites of my steak, it was not enjoyable
🙁 even after I had it sent back and the glaze was removed.
The berry cake for dessert was stale and not fresh, like it had sat out on a counter all day. Server was very nice but I believe a bit overwhelmed with the evening as she made a few mistakes and was forgetful of a few requests. (Like forks and spoons for our dessert and coffee).
I have been here once before and it was great. Maybe was an off night because there were 2 tables with larger parties.??

Overpriced for terrible food. Had the spinach artichoke dip with crab, steak and Cajun shrimp on risotto, and lamb with risotto. Every single item was a HUGE disappointment. Flavor was weak, risotto taste better from a box, veggie seemed like something you get out of a frozen bag (food lion brand). Atmosphere was basic, not sure about the views as it was gloomy and they had the window blinds down.
Service was very good. Everyone was extremely friendly. Drinks from bar were also good.
