Great food, beautiful view, very relaxing. You can dine inside or out. I eat there at least once a month. Staff is very nice and very efficient.

If you are into fine dining and enjoy the luxury of real waiters who know there job, - then you found the place. I loved the variations on the menu, and yes it is French inspired which I personally love. It is all about the good food and being able to enjoy the cosy atmosphere and stunning view. The only...

Second visit to this incredible food experience. Service, food, menu and drinks. We came here after our wedding and I could think of few places to choose from on our anniversary. Incredible.

I had been told that having light fare at the bar is the way to enjoy some of the fine cuisine this restaurant is noted for without spending a lot. This was excellent advice. There are only a few tables in the cozy bar area where we were comfortably seated. The buttered lobster I had ordered was preceded by excellent... More

We were aware of some of the not-so-favorable reviews when we made our reservation. Yes, the tables were closely spaced together, but no more so than a European restaurant. Yes, the place was packed, but no more so than any good restaurant. And the Beach Bistro if a really good restaurant. We met good friends who lived in the area... More
