Reviews
"If you want to spend 200 dollars for tuna helper and some drinks when you are ordering lobster Mac and cheese. Adding fish to something that’s supposed to be shellfish is not a wise decision. We have eaten here before, we have ordered these things multiple times and enjoyed them. Corners have been desperately cut and the quality of the food has declined drastically! My lobster bisque had shrimp and fish in it. We enjoyed the he escargot and the drinks, our server did a wonderful job. The food really needs desperate attention."
"We came here on a short trip out of town for our anniversary. I booked it ahead of time and had no issues doing so. The food was fantastic, the service was great, and the atmosphere was also great. They added some personal touches to the menu and even to our plates for our anniversary which we appreciated the gesture and definitely added to the whole experience!"
"Went to splash for a double birthday dinner (my mom's belated and my upcoming) They were so sweet and wrote happy birthday on our plates. The food was nothing short of perfection. Our appetiser was scampi fried oysters which were heavenly My wife had the clam chowder, fillet mignon, scallops, mashed potatoes and green beans I had the fillet mignon and lobster tail with rice and green beans My mom had the clam chowder, asparagus and scallops. For dessert we shared a creme brulee and took a key lime cheesecake to go. I'd come back a million times if I could!"
"Stopped for a birthday dinner and had a really nice time. The food was really good, we tried the Crab Cakes, Oysters Rockefeller, a seafood pasta and miso salmon. All were very nice. The price was a little high for the quality however, just seemed a bit stretched on a few of the offerings for sure. Drinks as a whole were about 14-18 dollars which seems a bit much. The decor seemed a little dated but still a great spot for a date. The service was excellent and attentive and waitress was more than happy to take on any requests. The chocolate cake with ice cream added at the end was fantastic."
"I had an amazing and delicious food at this place. I ordered the anniversary special red snapper.I had red snapper in other restaurants in the past but the portions that I ordered here was specialty ones. They mixed lightly breaded red snapper with fried saffron, stirred mushrooms and lettuce, and fried noodles with their seasoning. It was a great combination over the rice. Hope you also enjoy this cozy historical and spacious place with their remarkable foods. I recommend reservations ahead of your visit even during weekdays"
