There are many things to love about this menu, but the seafood tends to steal the show regardless of the season. The freshest and most simple ingredients come together in an imaginative way with these dishes. A good example of this is in the Pan Seared Lemon Butter Salmon served with parmesan gnocchi, mixed vegetables, and a parmesan broth. But you cannot go wrong with the Grilled Snapper and Grits served with parmesan poblano grits and charred lemon sauce.
