The Q Tips & long time friends went for dinner and enjoyed the company, drinks, meal, ambiance & outstanding service. We especially enjoyed visiting with our long time friends.

Appetizers – Caesar salad for him & Lobster Bisque for the other. Mrs. Q had the French Onion Soup & the other half had Lobster Bisque. The Q’s had: Seafood Medallions – Shrimp, Crab, but no scallops at this time, sautéed in a Butter Sauce served with Risotto. Our friends each had: Pasta A La Cave – Linguini served with Shrimp, Lobster in a Tomato Garlic Sauce.

Our friends shared Ice Cream for Dessert.

A bit pricey but still a very enjoyable evening.

Go and enjoy! We did. Mrs. Q says: it seems dark when you first enter the dining area but you eyes do adjust quickly & they also have a bar area. They don’t have menus that light up for easy reading anymore. The company can’t get any more supplies.
