In all fairness, it's a bit strange dining again. But us foodies are so excited to pop in early before the other diners crowd the room. Loved the grouper and the whole dish - full of flavors and freshness. The salmon deserves recognition as well. The fall was the dessert. I should have sent it back. This dish was an oversized dry Graham cracker with a chunk, no kidding, an inch and a half of, not toasted or any attempt of melting, marshmallow, and if there was a hint of chocolate, you couldn't see or taste it. I highly suggest the restaurant send the dessert chef on a camping experience or replace this dessert with another. Anyone who longs for the outdoors and the crackle of a fire, will gravitate to this selection and be terribly disappointed. The waitstaff was excellent.
Liked: The grouper was excellent!
Disliked: The Smores dessert was disgusting.
