10 oz. Ribeye
Great food and love the view! Looking forward to visiting again next week!
Duck Confit
This is my husband's favorite and Peter knows how to prepare duck confit to perfection. Every year I have a difficult time getting him to try something else because he cannot resist this dish. The duck is very moist, flavorable and literally falls off the bone. We've travelled a lot and this is the best he's ever had.
Bruschetta
The best part about eating here is that they never disappoint. The bruschetta is our favorite appetizer and we cannot resist having it before we order our dinner.
Slow Roasted Pork Shank
Amazing, absolutely amazing! The salad was also delicious, as was the bread pudding! The service was stellar!
Duck Confit
I know, I should be having fish, clams or the oysters...BUT this duck is so good, I can't resist. It falls off the bone, loaded with flavor--very, very good.
Lobster Ravioli
It was light and creamy and the leeks added a nice background flavor. I don't know if the ravioli was house-made but it tasted like it was and the lobster was incredible. I've eaten out at almost every restaurant, pub and diner on Cedar Key over the last few years and this was my favorite dish!
Grilled Shrimp Royale
This is one of my favorite dishes. The shrimp is always done to perfection, being grilled with a slight crunch to them. The roasted veggies that accompany the shrimp and rice are some of the best I've ever had.
Duck Confit
My fiancé and I had a lovely dinner here last night. This is a jewel hidden amongst all the many seafood restaurants. We believe the chef is French trained and possibly of Italian descent. We started with escargot served in puff pastry with garlic butter-which paired perfectly with the Pinot noir we were sipping. Next grilled andouille sausage with course ground mustard. I had duck confit, so tender, no knife needed. Prepared in the classic French tradition with a scrumptious brown sauce. My duck was complimented with potatoes Au gratin. These are not your mother's cheesy potatoes. Each slice of potato was carefully layered with cheese with just the right amount of crispiness atop. My veggies were steamed broccoli and cauliflower garnished with collard greens. I typically stay away from steamed vegetable medleys. As they are usually bland mush. Not these, soft yet crisp, flavorful and collards cooked perfectly. This is quite a compliment as I am from South Georgia and take a tremendous amount of pride in my collards. My fiancé had braised short ribs served Ragu style with homemade fettuccine. Now the dessert: homemade hot bread pudding served with bourbon sauce, absolutely decadent with warm spices and pecans. I have never had better even in New Orleans. Do yourself a favor and try this hidden gem. You will not regret the choice, I promise!
Grouper Piccata
This dish was great. The fish was cooked perfectly--moist with nice flaking. The sauce of lemon, butter and capers was tart and delicious. And the thing is we got it carry-out and ate it 10 mins later--still wonderful. Do not visit without getting the potatoes au gratin and the sourdough dinner rolls, both are excellent!
Shrimp Scampi Over Linguine
Excellent! Shrimp done correctly (JUST done), pasta perfectly al dente, sauce light, classic. Great meal!
