The food was great and the portions were way bigger than expected and well worth the price. The service was great also. Try the Seared Tuna and/or the Crab and Brie Pizza . Yum!

Half off sushi , pizza and drinks from 5 - 7. Pear and gorgonzola salad is great and if you have room for dessert , get the pizzookie . My favorite part of this place is of course the view though!

Briana Bailey

Great service and tasty / fresh seafood . Hush puppies , calamari , scallops , surf n turf , etc all great. Sharif was an amazing waiter .

Michael Ritchey

Atmosphere and view of downtown is best in Richmond. The food was amazing. I had the broiled seafood dinner . Each item had a distinct natural flavor not overpowered by salt like some seafood places.

Terri Lahlou

Had the Scallops and they were very good. Great vibe and view of the RVA skyline . Will definitely be back.

Sarah Jamillah

Excellent food beautiful at sunset ! If you're really hungry, get the crab cakes , If you want a smaller taste of something wonderful, have the scallops , both were delicious!

Berkeley Goodloe

My Kobe burger was very tasty and cooked to order. If you have a cocktail order the bartender cannot make, DO NOT TRUST HIS JUDGMENT ON AN ALTERNATIVE.

Trevor Dickerson

Fantastic food- especially the scallops & oysters . Great crab benedict at brunch too & awesome views of the RVA skyline . Ask for Ross- best server there!

Mia Walls

Go for a fun time with the girls or a date after 5pm for the happy hour specials ! Amazing - half off the CRAB pizza AND sushi !

One of the best bloody marys in the city - ask for extra pickled green beans !

I had the shrimp and grits . The portions were way small, it was overpriced, and it was just ok. I needed to add salt. Beautiful atmosphere though.

Shelita McBride

Good drinks and a nice band can't ask for more! Try the Pear & Gargonzola pizza ...delish!

If it wasn't raining the decks would've been to place to be.

Make a reservation - especially Friday or Saturday night. Wait times are often over 90 minutes.

Drinks are expensive and prepared with hardly, if any, booze in them. Stay away from mojitos and order wine .
