Guys, i was honestly SUPER EXCITED to go here. The decor is really cool; has this old captain Ahab feel to it. The waiter was nice and was trying to be funny but I didnt get all the jokes, but that is probably my fault.

The most important part....the food. We had fresh clams, escargot, and lobster bisque for appetizers. We were hungry and didnt have lunch yesterday. After a whole day of kitesurfing in waves i could have eaten a horse or a shark. The clams were good and the escargot was good as well. The lobster bisque was very rich in flavor but under inspection i found that there was real and immitiation lobster/crab in the bisque. You know the one they sell at the supermaket that is red/white and a bit strandy like polly-o cheese.

For main course my wife got the lobster tail thomadore and i got the land and sea. Hers was exceptional. Mine was the complete opposite. I asked for the sirloin to be medium rare and at parts it was but at others it was brown and like rubber. In the cook's defense the meat was not totally consistent in thickness. I am a steak buff back in NYC and i can tell you the meat wasnt that great of of a quality or cut. The shrimp were OK but a bit dry and i am fairly certain were not fresh but frozen. The fish was pretty good.

All in all it was nice to see the decorations but I would not go back here.
