" A wonderful evening filled with laughs and good food! The staff was very accommodating ensuring everything was to our liking. I had the clams served in white wine, and they were rich in flavor. Can't wait to share this lovely eatery with my family on my next trip. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a fan of Italian cuisine, I was a bit skeptical about the seafood focus, but I was pleasantly surprised by how well they integrated both aspects. My partner loved the lobster lasagna, and I indulged in the seafood chowder which was thick and creamy. It had plenty of shrimp—very satisfying! The environment was lively and welcoming, making it perfect for a date night. Will definitely come again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Attended a family gathering at Speaks, and the overall experience was pleasant. The menu is quite versatile, catering to different tastes. My seafood pasta was good, but not extraordinary. However, the freshness of the ingredients ultimately made it enjoyable. I would return due to the good service and nice environment. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great atmosphere and service! I ordered the salmon specials and was impressed with how fresh it tasted. Yet, I wish there were more options for sides that came with the dinner. Besides that, the experience was enjoyable and has given me a reason to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can honestly say I was quite satisfied with everything during my visit. Their linguine with clams was simply out of this world. Overall a fun and enjoyable place with cozy feelings. Definitely on my list for my next Yang visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, a lovely spot for dinner with family. The menu has some great options and the portions are very reasonable. However, I found my pasta a bit bland compared to what I expected from an Italian restaurant. The service was attentive and friendly, which is always a plus. " (*Curated Review*)

" Discovered this place while on vacation and so glad we did! The seafood was all fresh, and I particularly enjoyed the lobster dip appetizer. It strikes a balance between casual and upscale dining, perfect for a night out. I highly recommend the dessert options too! " (*Curated Review*)
