WASTE OF TIME

  • No, I would not go back!

The place is nice for sunset view but ruined by the bad service and quality of food. Noone come to attend you to table and customers ended up waiting like idiots whereas someone come later got the table before you.The servers always outsmart you about the proper knowledge of food. They can't reckon as simple as tartar sauce till you gotta get yourself at the kitchen. Forget the cocktail. Wasted time and money.

If I could give this a negative rating I would.

do not go here at all costs! My original review as I was at the "restaurant" was more apt. Service is bad. Food is from canned sources. I wish I could throw up on myself to relieve myself of the Van de Kamp frozen food I was served. Quite honestly, unless it's beers (and only beers - do not order "cocktails") that you're looking for, the McDonald's will serve up much finer Freedom Fries. Also NOTE: they do not have lobster rolls or shrimp burgers. Actually, the waitress did not know what a lobster roll was.

Some Hints:

  • The best reviews give a clear sense of why you liked or disliked a restaurant, bar, or store. And that means details. Mention specifics dishes, type of crowd, pros and cons...
  • If it's helpful to compare one place to another, go for it.
  • Come up with clever, funny, pithy subject lines, and write in the first person.
  • Don't forget to read the user rating guidelines and rules.
