- Seafood lovers should start with the tuna tartare or raw bar selections for a fresh, light opener.
- If you like hearty mains, consider the rack of lamb or a tomahawk/NY strip steak; portions are generous and cooked to order.
- For celebrations, ask about the outdoor garden pavilion—staff can help customize menus and details for private events.
