We think the best way to describe this wonderful establishment is by using the words casually elegant. The dining room is so intimate and has an old world yet modern feel. If you are a fan of grilled salmon, you are going to want to order it here because the chef knows how to cook it to perfection. And it doesn't hurt that they have a very nice selection of wine.

There is no doubt that this is the finest seafood restaurant in the area. They get their seafood daily which means you will consume nothing but fresh fare. In fact, we would go as far as to say that you haven't truly lived until you have sampled their fresh oysters, crudos, frog legs, lobster and fish. If you need anything else, they have that too.
