The three stars is for the restaurant as a whole, as the food was very yummy. So consider going to their other locations. Well after waiting two hours and all these empty tables. We had 4 kids with us, and a sibling with an autoimmune disease who needs to eat within a certain amount of time. We were quoted another 40 min. after the two hour wait which then we went to the bar area to be seated on our own. Finally they got us a table since we had kids and didn’t feel safe on the tall stools. We then had to wait another 5 minutes for the table to be cleaned. The servers at the bar were very lovely and helpful. They took notice that we were there for an extended time and were trying to accommodate, while the hostess was extremely unfriendly. Now for the food. Bread was stellar, the shrimp pasta was way too spicy (ate one bite and sent it back to a random waitress since ours was never around), shrimp cocktail was fresh, and the Caesar salad was flavorful. Between all 10 of us, there were a handful of entrees that were tried and were enjoyed! Service was terrible. Our waitress was nice but we saw her 4 times. Once to take our order, 2nd to bring 3 late entrees that didn’t come out with all the other food, 3rd to drop the check, and 4th to have us sign for the check. Overall if you want good food and have the whole night open with nowhere to be, go for it. They should just say reservations only instead of misleading us on the wait time.

We came in for lunch. The hostess was super polite despite some older women being unnecessarily rude. The servers jumped in to help get us sat.  The bathrooms are super clean as was the entire restaurant. Our server was great at getting the kids food and apps in. We did take our time deciding and the server mixed up some sides putting spinach vs the zucchini, but my mother enjoyed the spinach. The asparagus was cooked perfectly and the service was kind to remind us its an up charge while ordering. My mother really enjoyed scallops. they were beautifully cooked and using lemon juice really enhanced the flavors. The raw oysters were well prepared. They were definitely fresh and came out very quick with a variety of sauces. The kids ordered the grilled cheese which is a buttery sourdough bread even the grownups enjoyed taking a bite. My husband ordered top sirloin with mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese. He didn't care for the Mac and cheese it's definitely on the fancier side. The mashed potatoes are seasoned well. The pine avenue drinks thyme is very strong I like to stick with the Beauregard drink.

Nice restaurant with a large seafood menu! So far, we've been pleased with the cuisine. We tried Australian lobster. It had a unique flavor and was prepared in an excellent manner. I adore it!

Nice place for meeting and talking with people. Had a great time while dining here. The food was delicious and our server was very friendly. Just prepare to spend some money.

Not really...although you could just ask for a plate of veggies and rice sans any butter or sauce made from meat.
