Really only deserves 3 starts, but it's trying so damn hard.
Food is pretty good, but not outstanding. Way better then Outback or Dead Lobster. I had a steak which was cooked exactly as I ordered it: medium. Wife liked her crab cakes.
The charm here is the service and upkeep and pride in the establishment.
I saw the bar tender polishing wine glasses to remove water stains. The server was very professional. Manager (owner maybe?) seemed genuinely interested in our experience as we left.
The place is 30 years old but is meticulously kept up. Looks like it could have been opened 5 years ago instead of 3 decades.
Also reminded me of the charming places that dot the coast in the Pacific Northwest.
Great place for a special
