" An excellent choice for those who appreciate fresh seafood! The signature lobster roe pasta did not disappoint, and the vibe created by the decor and lighting made for a romantic evening. The service was okay, but it felt like they were slightly overwhelmed by the crowd. Still, I’m looking forward to dining here again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a great time at Judy's Bay! The space feels intimate yet lively, ideal for small gatherings. The service was prompt, but we did feel a bit rushed during our meal. The seared scallops were top-notch and delicately cooked, while the pork belly was rich and satisfying. We also appreciated the thoughtful drink selection, especially the sake pairings. Will return for sure! " (*Curated Review*)
