    About
    Come to our restaurant in the early evening and watch a beautiful sunset while munching on some appetizers like our pan-fried shrimp and sipping on some Italian Sauvignon Blanc. For a main course try our Branzino fish with some sauteed vegetables. Then to finish off a delicious meal and a beautiful night try our Zabaglione with fresh strawberries and a pastry. You will not be disappointed!

    I love the caprese!! It’s actually a Napolean, a layered Caprese with thin bread/lavosh as one layer, then mozzarella, then tomato... repeat, repeat. They then drizzle pesto instead of leafy basil. It’s beautiful, creative and tasty. I enjoyed a delicious mushroom and sausage risotto while...More

    Sitting on outside patio is best to experience the views and the people watching coming on and off dinner/entertainment cruises. House specials always worthwhile. Wine pricing can catch you if you are not selective.

    We did not have children. The place was good for kids. They will love it, there is a lot to take in. There were plenty of families there. You can get small portions for kids. The staff there were very flexible with the menu.
