I went with my sister and her boyfriend and we were ignored for a while (everybody else around us was being served and getting their drinks refilled while the staff just walked right by us) and the food was not worth the price. more

We had amazing mussels and ceder planked salmon. The food was so fresh that it tasted like the fish jumped straight from the ocean into the wood fired oven. I have been to many restaurants on the peninsula, no one can compete with Alder Wood seafood masterpieces. more
