Please be aware that they are not accepting large group reservations. A large group is defined as any "group over 8 or 9 people" (their words).Asked to be put on the wait list. Was informed the wait list meant showing up the day of to see if there's an open table.The food is ok, drinks are small, prices are kind of high for what you're getting, and the atmosphere is loud.My mom likes it because it reminds her if the Florida retirement community she likes. It's just missing the good seafood, ocean, and views. However, they do have high quality outdoor furniture to sit on, as you enjoy your meal indoors. It's not terrible, but definitely not the type of place I would wait outside, in line, for a chance to be seated.

The only section missing a star is the Atmosphere, but that’s because of personal preference (not into the beach theme). And, the water they served us wasn’t refreshing and delicious…Overall, this was an experience beyond my expectations, which were high based on friends and family who have been before. The food was delicious: I had the Ahi Tuna and my wife had the Chicken Pesto bowl. Both were incomparable to anything we’ve had in a while.The service was excellent: providing water and refills rather quickly and consistently and we had the privilege of our friend, Tyler, who is a manger there, help us out! (Shout out to him and all his hard work over many years)Another neat, convenient thing was the ability to split the bill by simply using a QR code provided on the table (we were with 4 other friends).We’ll definitely return to this spot in the future when we come to the Arboretum!

The Crab + Shrimp Bruschetta was buttery and rich with flavorful seafood on top of a lobster roll style bread. This was a 5/5 and I will be ordering it every single time I return to this establishment. It made me transport my mental state to a beach where I am cosplaying a bougie baddie. Grilled Octopus is a difficult feat, and I would say 9/10 locations overcook it. This one was only slightly overdone, however, the potatoes, creamy herb sauce, olives, and pistachios kept the plate diversified enough to still enjoy.They made our 7-year-old's birthday with a surprise non-alcoholic rose that she could cheers the group with. It was such a thoughtful surprise and reinforced this was a great choice for a birthday destination.On the check, expect additional charges of a State Tax of 10.25% (understandable), a Local tax of 1.50%, and on Sundays, there is a "Sunday Checkout fee that says "This fee applies to the usage of Sunday, your 10-second QR code payment". The Sunday checkout fee came to $6.49, which begs the question if we didn't use the QR code and asked for a paper check to pay would there not have been a charge?

Our server Christian was amazing. Thank you.The food was super delicious. We tried multiple items and they were all delicious. Love how Cory the GM was walking around asking every table if everything was good. This place is better than the Skokie one for sure. Thank you guys

Food and service was excellent. The music however was much too loud and spoiled the dining experience. I’m sure it is part of the atmosphere they are portraying but not in my book. We will not return unless the music is toned down.

Tried coming here to celebrate youngest's 18th birthday. Made a reservation and mentioned about the special occasion. Nobody aware of special occasion. When asked of waitress, she expressed surprise. After attending other dinners here and getting a comp'ed dessert, we assumed same. Waitress very helpfully stated "you can choose from, and then listed desserts.". Then hit us for $16 on the bill. My Apple Watch warned me constantly about hearing damage from the insanely loud music. Can I mention the 4 of us crammed into a table top? Not even elbow room, and everyone else at my table was 1/2 my size. When questioned about the charge for the free dessert, the waitress snickered and said we only give away the candle. Food quality and handling was excellent but won't be back.
