Big news! As we all continue to readjust back to the normalcy of pre-pandemic dining, we are making some changes related to reservations, and Happy Hour Seating.

Effective Wednesday, March 8th we will no longer be accepting reservations for seats directly at the Bar Counter, or Boat Room High Tops. Existing Reservations will be honored.

Bar Counter and Boat Room seating will be on a first come first served basis. In order to accommodate as many guests as possible, for parties larger than 4 we may request you be seated at a table in the Bar Area when available.

Low Top tables in the Bar Area will remain reservable for Happy Hour and Dinner Service. We appreciate your understanding and flexibility through these last few years as we have worked to find what best suits our customers and our growing business. We look forward to continuing to providing you with great experiences in the months and years to come. We look forward to seeing you soon.

New Wine Wednesday! Here's a highlight of one of our newest additions to our Reserve Wine List, and one that we are particularly excited to be able to offer!

Field Recordings 'Domo Arigato Mr. Ramato' a skin contact, Ramato-style Pinot Gris, coming from a blend of three vineyards from distinct vineyards across the Central Coast: Paso Robles, Santa Barbara Highland and the Edna Valley. Notes of white pepper, fresh pear and apricot. Delicious in any season! Look for it on our Reserve List, and keep an eye out for more new Wine and Cocktail additions as they arrive!

Happy Wednesday!
