View of the counter from our seat.

 

The place has an upscale vibe.

We had a really nice view of the Harbor.

 

 

Nice chandeliers.  Check out the counter... there are so many cups on top of the counter.  I think they are dirty cups and they are so busy and did not have a chance to clear it out.

Very relaxing to seat here and the view is really nice too.  Too bad it was a gray day.
