Coast Restaurant

Same excellent service and management as Black and Blue, next door.

We came at lunch time on Sunday, when it is also happy hour. What a great deal! Wines by the glass for $5, and great small plates.

The sushi assortment was perfectly prepared, with a nice mixture of rolls, nigiri, and sashimi.

The salmon flatbread was also notable, made with mascarpone instead of the usual feta or ricotta. Perfectly crisped crust.

We’ll definitely be back. Happy hour on weekdays starts early, at 2pm, and there is also a lobster dinner Sunday evenings.

Little Jumbo

This delightful little restaurant has a speak-easy feel without any affectation. \

Cocktail quality is front and center here, with an ever-changing list of thoughtful twists on classics and creative new concoctions.

The menu is equally well thought-out, with a varied list of starters and sharing plates, and a handful of impeccable entrees.

The staff were the real highlight, with friendly and efficient service. The entire restaurant was being handled by just two people; from front desk to bar to table service, and they made it look easy.

Highly recommended.
