"We made a last minute decision where to eat and our hostess made it easy to call and get a table for 4 at 7:00pm on Friday. She easily confirmed my name and phone number through Resy. The food and ambience are great. Love the green plants, simple coastal decor and open kitchen concept. The holiday decorations were also lovely, and simplistic. No clutter at the front door or tight spaces between tables and the bar.We started with the Bere Toscan wine however our server struggled to remove the cork. My friend offered to help as the bottle leaned to far and looked as if it were going to fall on the table. Never seen a server try to open a bottle on the table. Wine is to be opened off the table to avoid crowding with the dinner settings or in this case losing control of the bottle with a slip trying to pull out the cork. It was awkward as she seemed inexperienced with wine tools and presentation. Then she hurriedly poured it into our glasses without asking if we wished to taste to ask if we liked it and walked off. As a fan of Super Tuscans we were disappointed and thought it was a bit flat.As for the food, we did not have starters. We told our server twice we had already had appetizers before we came to the restaurant. I ordered the autumn salad and added the shrimp. I would highly recommend the autumn salad as a lighter meal and it is a very generous portion. The shrimp were amazing, great seasoning, and cooked perfectly. I was glad our server made this recommendation before ordering my go to the chicken. Two friends preferred the NY Strips yet thought the balsamic reduction made their their steaks a bit too sweet. I had one bit and could not tell but I was pretty sure bordelaise sauce is a sweet sauce with red wine, butter, stock and shallots not balsamic but maybe there was balsamic which made it taste even sweeter. I am not sure. They said the mushrooms, potatoes and chard were delicious. The presentation and cooking preferences were on point (med rare and medium) and they ate over half so it must have been very good! The 4th diner said her crab cakes were just okay. We didn 't want dessert. For the slight disappointment and price of the entrees and wine this visit did not meet expectations of the previous visit but will definitely return. The autumn salad was delicious, the steaks were cooked perfectly even if a bit over seasoned. I did not try the crab cakes and not sure what made them okay . A friend highly recommended the chicken club sandwich at lunch. He said it 's not just any club sandwich so we 'll be back to try lunch to enjoy the patio."
