Louie's Backyard Review

Feast your eyes on a steal-your-breath-away view and beautifully presented dishes prepared by executive chef Doug Shook. Once you get over sticker shock on the seasonally changing menu (appetizers cost around $9-$18; entrées can hover around the $36 mark), settle in on the outside deck and enjoy dishes like grilled scallops with shrimp cream, sautéed veal sweetbreads with crabmeat, and greens-stuffed chicken breast. A more affordable option upstairs is the Upper Deck, which serves tapas such as flaming ouzo shrimp, roasted olives with onion and feta, and Gruyère and duck confit pizza. If you come for lunch, the menu is less expensive but the view is just as fantastic. For night owls, the tin-roofed Afterdeck Bar serves cocktails on the water until the wee hours.
