Went here for date night and absolutely loved it!  Although the dinner was amazing, I would totally go back just to have drinks while gazing at the ocean.  It’s incredibly romantic to sit outside and watch the ocean while sipping on some wine. We tried a few white wines and decided on a Viognier. The food was great all around. We ordered the Flash Fried Calimari, a great appetizer because it was delicious, crispy, and great for sharing.  The scallops were ever so delicately seared and they just melted in your mouth, almost no chewing necessary.  We also had the Grilled Pacific Swordfish which was a great choice because it was a thick cut and had an amazing buttery sauce that went perfectly with the spinach and mashed potatoes. For dessert…the souffle for dessert with the spiced coffee sauce and hazelnut ice cream. I mean, Hello!?  How can you go wrong with that.  The whole evening was just magical.
