    Veggie spring rolls
    Oralia D.

    Cute little spot on the waterfront. Went in here after finding out DeVino is 21+ to even sit on the patio. Ordered the Pittsburg Margarita, Coconut Margarita, and the Passion fruit Lemon Drop with egg rolls for snacking. Drinks were a tad sweet but were good. Egg rolls tasted fresh too. I would go back for a date night or quick bite to eat. The server was really sweet as well, I did not get her name but she had blonde highlights!

    Great place to hangout and have drinks at the patio, they have happy hour Tuesday -Friday from 3-6 pm. The food was ok , they pretty much serve everything with ranch :) I ordered a tuna melt but is not the traditional tuna sandwich they mixed the tuna with onion and tomato it was ok. The service is good. There's parking right outside.

    Keeping the 4 star rating as an update to a previous review. My famiy and I went for breakfast on Mother's Day. We got there at the perfect time and got a great seat on the patio. Everyone enjoyed their food and the Moms enjoyed our Mimosas and Bloody Mary. The only complaint/disappointment I have was the rice served with my Chilaquiles. The rice had no flavor and it closely resembled the pre-packaged rice by Del Real. Waterfront, if you are serving your customers this rice with out at least adding your own touch to make it less dry and more flavorful, please stop. The wait time once the food came and as the restaurant filled up started to get longer. We waited quite some time for our bill to come and for our server to bring to-go boxes. We didn't mind the wait so much since it was such a nice morning out and we were enjoying each others company. My Mother-in-law and I will be back soon for lunch on the patio.

    This place is amazing. This chef is so so so so sweet. They always they always take care of me when I come in. I get the cobnara, I always say it wrong. I would definitely go here. It's a nice quaint little spot has outside seating also but the surf is always good. Definitely try it if you're in the Pittsburgh area.

    I ordered a mango salad with shrimp on it and they gave me the mango glazed shrimp dinner. Wrong order!

    The restaurant has a good ambience, we usually have breakfast here sometimes and decided to try their dinner menu. Too expensive and our orders were wrong. Very disappointed.

    The service is excellent and the staff are welcoming and kind. There are both indoor and outdoor seating options, and in the evening the outdoor area is nicely lit with a great view of the marina. Prices are fair, and the daily menu and cocktail options change frequently. They serve a mix of Mexican specialties and American favorites, and they also offer a delicious breakfast.

For their prices and beautiful ambiance, I would expect better. Fast forward to Mother's Day. (Late review I know) My mother wanted to go here for an early dinner. I wasn't happy about her choice, but hey, it's her day. After arriving with my wife we were promptly seated. My mother ordered the salmon, my step-dad ordered I forget what, and my wife and I ordered the ribeye steak. My wife and I had ordered the ribeye there before. The previous times the steaks were bland. This time though, wow! The food was super delicious! Now to the service. Keonna. Keonna kept looking at my mother. Not in a weird way, but in a I think I know you from somewhere way. Finally she told my mom she reminded her of her grandmother and told my mother she was beautiful. That made my mother smile. Keonna was also super attentive and on top of everything. Thank you, Keonna. You helped make my mom's day that much better.

We don't always roll like that, but we tend to try to beat the rush so we can head back to our Trilogy Rio Vista Compound and nap. Being early was not a problem. The Owners/Hosts were courteous and sat us right away. We ordered the 20 Ribeye's both. Sides of creamed spinach and Brussel sprouts and two salads, one Caesar and one house. Also cream of mushroom soup. Presentation was spectacular. The salads were crisp and garnished with edible orchids. The soup was creamy and soothing. We chose, at the suggestion of our host the Bowtie Petite Syrah from the Macaully Estate Winery. Delicious, perfect temperature. The steaks were cooked perfect to medium. The rub was spiced right, and no steak sauce was even pondered. We topped it off with the New York Cheesecake and even though one of the Blueberries sadly fell off the table during the mandatory photo session, it did not hold it against us. Blueberries are naturally sad by comedy nature, so it held it martyrdom with pride. We will go back. We will recommend. We will try with all our might to save and ingest both blueberries on the next excursion. So help us God.

The restaurant seems like an ultra-polished turd; no one seems to know what they are doing, but they painted the walls nice so I guess they can charge top dollar. Gripes: Slow, unprofessional service Bartender lacked experience, visibly Had to repeat my order several times because the bartender had stopped listening to yell at her staff Wine list is very basic, even though Napa is so nearby Cocktail menu is just standard cocktails, and watching her make them was less than reassuring. She was relying on her recipe notes and the bar is so disorganized. We watched a bottle of white wine sit uncorked, out and unchilled, for the entirety of our visit after she poured a glass for my lady. We didn't order a second glass, but we might have otherwise. Soup was lukewarm and seemed straight from a can "Legendary baked mac'n'cheese" is comedic gold, and whoever described it that way must be hilarious Ribeye was ordered medium rare and came out with barely a sear I feel like this place is a wonderfully executed practical joke, and they got us real good. Hoping for a hidden camera show at some point. Otherwise maybe Bar Rescue can save them.

I asked if I could be seated and get a menu. He awkwardly said OK. After I sat down, he came over and said that the cook might leave early, and that I might want to hurry up and order. I politely excused myself and said that I would come back another time. I then drove to another nearby restaurant that also is open till 9 PM. I didn't get there until 9:35 PM, but they served me and were very pleasant, and I had a great dinner. I don't understand why a business would post their hours and then not abide by them.

    I'm writing this review to save people from ordering the shrimp scampi here…read more My niece chose this restaurant to celebrate her birthday, and it was also my sister's birthday. There were four of us. Everyone except me is very fond of red meat--I am not. When I looked at the menu online, I was happy to see they offered several non-meat options. I decided on the shrimp scampi and looked forward to it all week. What a disappointment. The six shrimp arrived at room temperature, and the butter sauce they were sitting in was also barely warm. The shrimp did not appear to have been cooked in the sauce at all. They looked and tasted like plain boiled shrimp--exactly like the pre-cooked shrimp you can buy at Costco. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if that's where they came from. The sauce tasted like pure melted butter, with no noticeable garlic or white wine flavor--just plain butter. I suppose this is what I get for ordering a non-meat entrée at a steakhouse, but if you can't make a decent option for non-meat eaters, don't bother putting it on the menu. The French onion soup, however, was delicious. I would order only that again if I had to return. The creamed spinach was just okay--honestly, the one I make at home is much better. The baked potato was also very good and served piping hot, which I especially appreciated after the tepid shrimp. I did not order dessert, but my niece and sister both had cheesecake. They did not charge for it since it was their birthdays, which was very much appreciated. They also do not serve bread at this restaurant--or at least none was offered or brought to the table. Another thing I found strange was the layout. There is a very narrow hallway leading to the dining rooms on the right, and right in the middle of that hallway is the computer station where the waitstaff enter orders. I would hate to be a server here--it seems like one of the worst possible places for it. People were constantly trying to squeeze past while the staff were standing there trying to work.
