  1. This was the perfect spot for our holiday Grub Club. The menu was fresh and changes often. I had the halibut dish and loved it. Just about everyone in our party ordered something different and I heard no complaints about the food. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. The prices were a little bit steep, but this is a place you would typically go for special occasions.

  2. This was my pick for the holidays. I really like the idea of getting a bit more dressed up and spending an evening in town. We split 3 appetizers and I had the Carlton salad which was very good. I had the halibut also--it had a southwestern preparation which was good. Others at the table had sea bass and baramundi which they enjoyed. We split 3 desserts also and the creme brulee was my favorite. The wine list is extensive and the mark up was not excessive. There were several bottles in the $30 range.

  3. I ventured out and actually tried fish. I tried the barramundi per the recommendation of a friend. It was outstanding. The rissoto that accompanied it was equally outstanding. Out of all the appetizers, I liked the gnocchi the best.
