I remember visiting Tom Ham's as a kid with my parents; I've been here for an anniversary dinner and for lunch, but never have I tried the Sunday Brunch -- what was I thinking!
While being seated, you are guided past a circle of tables crowned by shiny chafing dishes - impressive - yet just ahead is a jaw-dropping boatload of fresh seafood! We feasted on giant barbequed shrimp skewered on sugar cane slivers and sampled oysters on the half shell, peel-and-eat shrimp, three types of ceviche, smoked tuna, yellowtail and mahi mahi; poached salmon, lox and bagels, then gorged ourselves on Alaskan King crab legs.
A quick tour of the hot dishes revealed many treats, such as beef and chicken skewers, barbequed beef ribs, salmon, seafood pasta, slab bacon, sausage and country potatoes.
There is a well appointed omelette station as well as a waffle station accompanied by fresh pastries. We rounded out the meal with a stop at the dessert table bursting with pies, petits fours, cookies and truffles.
We enjoyed the included coffee, juice and champagne while taking in a picturesque stretch of the harbor. This brunch is a value for anyone who loves quality seafood. Try it out soon!

My experience. The view was excellent. The food, not so much.
