    We had high expectations coming here. The atmosphere was decent. The food is very okayish . We ordered the KungPao shrimp roll which was a 8/10 the pieces were way too big. The beef teriyaki dumplings 2/10 , came with its plastic covering and we had to send it back, the herb crusted salmon was a 6/10 and the fish tacos were 5/10. The place is quite overpriced for the quality of food served.

    Went here to celebrate a birthday and I had ordered the scallop meal which was very wet and very soupy when arrived but what was NOT OK was that i had hair in my food, on the first bite which I had to pull the hair out of my throat because I was chocking on it. The waitress was kind and said “ let me get you something else” and brought me a menu again as this was my first visit. I told her an appetizer thinking it would be quicker instead of waiting for a full new meal while everyone else was already eating their food. 20 minutes later when everyone else was already almost done eating, my food arrived. It was luke warm and honestly no flavor. The coleslaw on the side was the best part of the night. Then the bill came and I was charged for the replacement food the waitress offered me and no discount for any inconvenience. I was kind and understanding through out the process and the waitress was telling me “I wouldn’t eat the rest of that plate and I’d be disgusted” I was disgusted with having the hair and having the wait and then being charged full price for an overall bad experience. Returning doesn’t seem likely, and it’s a shame because it was recommended. Not even a manager apology or interaction during my visit. Very disappointing.

    Went on a Friday evening for dinner. Indoor seating was full but plenty of seating outdoors in a beautiful evening. Service was excellent and food was all fresh and tasty. Loved the appetizers and variety. Dessert was a bonus. Donuts had small slices of apple. Huge serving so definitely meant to be shared. We rolled out happy and full. 😋

    Love the Poynt! Have been there so many times and never wrote a review but it deserves a great one after our delicious dinner of lemon orzo shrimp, lemon chicken piccata and braised short ribs. The Brussel sprouts are the best anywhere! Chrissy our server was extremely friendly and attentive. Our cocktails were awesome and we LOVED the complimentary espresso martini concoction and strudel served for the Christmas stroll (and our server there as well!). This restaurant also rocks for brunch!!

    Lovely place for a date night! We enjoyed the patio seating, generous wine pours and oh so delicious food. My favorite was the dumplings appetizer, and the scallop with risotto entree was pretty great too. My husband enjoyed his lobster pasta. The service was prompt but didn't check in on us too much, which was much appreciated. The chocolate torte for dessert was the bomb!
