" Dined here hoping for an amazing meal based on reviews, but it fell short. The seafood platter was nice, but not worth the price. I appreciated the staff’s attentiveness, but won't be in a rush to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food was undeniably delicious, yet the portion sizes were disappointing given the price. I had expected more for what I paid, even though what I did receive was flavorful. The atmosphere was pleasant, but I doubt I will return due to the portion issue. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a fabulous birthday dinner here! The staff went above and beyond to make it special. The grilled salmon was cooked to perfection, and the desserts were heavenly. I genuinely appreciate the effort everyone made to accommodate us. " (*Curated Review*)
