This restaurant is a favorite of mine. I tend to travel for work and dine alone, so sitting at the bar is great. I’d even recommend the bar if it’s two people. Wednesday nights there always seems to be live acoustic music which adds to the mood. The bartenders are very friendly and can assist in finding you something good on the menu. My two recommendations: 1) Pork Chop 2) Sesame Crusted Ahi Love this place!

The food was great. The Macadamia Nut Encrusted Swordfish was prepped well. The Dynamite Scallops were fresh. The Duck Empanadas were not greasy as duck can be, nice and crisp.
