I wouldn't get anything but steak here. After all, it is a steakhouse. The ribeye was simply amazing! Just enough fat. And the fat was burnt. So much flavor and such high quality meat. I don't like my ribeye thick. The thickness was just right. The salad was okay. I think the Caesar's salad would have been better. I didn't eat any of the mashed potatoes but it looked delicious. I didn't eat their yummy dessert, but their fruits were so fresh. Overall, the food was amazing. The service was excellent and the restaurant is beautiful. I would definitely come back.

Everything was plated beautifully. Service was adequate, nothing exceptional. My braised short rib was more fat than anything else - sides were delicious. The desserts were great!

Came for dinner on NYE. The vibes were good, hostess was friendly and welcoming, and it was a cozy energy to ring in 2025. We ordered the French onion soup and Caesar salad to start. Both full of flavor, and having the actual anchovy in the salad was different and delicious. Breads were warm and fluffy, too! I ordered the ribeye with truffle butter and a lobster tail. Steak and lobster just melted at first bite; I loved it! My partner ordered the center cut filet with scallops and it came with this delicious black jasmine rice in, what I think, as a curry sauce. He enjoyed his plate as well, and the rice was a good taste test for me. We also did a split side of mac and cheese and the au gratin. Perfect sizes for the two of us to share, and both were so good, creamy and cheesy. We finished with the chocolate cake with vanilla gelato. So decadent and creamy; I'd buy a gallon of that gelato! Overall a wonderful evening to end 2024. We will definitely be back!

I got the short ribs which were good! The mashed potatoes were my favorite as well as the side of mac n cheese we got. My orange creamsicle cocktail was tasty! The others in my group got the chicken, steak Diane and filet. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Service was pretty fast and decent. Only problem was when we ordered a side of bearnaise sauce when our food came and the sauce didn't come until we were almost done eating. (We love bearnaise sauce but this one was different and not a favorite). We ate outside which was nice. They have heaters outside to stay warm.

Celebrated a special milestone with my partner. Service is 10/10 shoutout to Kevin and other staff members for being kind and attentive. we did the October 3 course Butternut squash: perfect! Creamy light perfec tfor the pallet! Came with croissants twist bread which was a nice touch Walnut salad: refreshing, but nothing too crazy Cod & fillet: cod was better than I thought! The salt on top made it even better. Fillet was tender but not my favorite 8/10 Pumkin cheese cake: 12/10 delicious! It's a great dessert for the season!

I had a great experience here! Food is amazing, service was friendly and super accommodating. Came in on a Saturday at around 5:30pm with a party of two with reservation and were seated immediately. Things were pretty chill at this time but definitely got a lot more busier later on, so I'd definitely recommend making a reservation or coming in early. Our waiter made great conversation and made us feel at home. We actually ordered the special that wasn't on the menu that he told us about (it was a whiskey dry aged ribeye) and it was quite honestly the best steak I've had in a while. We got a small whiskey sample on the house that went with the steak and it made all the difference. Super aromatic and unique, I've never had anything quite like it anywhere else! Another standout for me were the ladies' accommodations in the restrooms with complementary tampons, hair ties, and other amenities. It's a small detail but it made all the difference in my experience here. Even michelin star restaurants are not this well-accommodated, so I highly appreciate this attention to detail. Everything from the food, service, and ambiance was 5 stars and out of the park. I would definitely recommend this spot for date night, celebrations, or any excuse to eat some delicious steak!

This place is famous for a reason. From the start our service was top notch. I loved the details like a custom printed menu celebrating our anniversary and the accompanying dessert. In my opinion, those small touches really do speak volumes. Our server had great recommendations and suggestions throughout our ordering process. The drinks were fantastic and the food was even better. I will dream of my spark plug, steak, and Mac and cheese for at least the next few months.

My friend and I came here for dinner on a Sunday evening. The restaurant has a small parking lot, but there is also street parking available around. We were able to get a spot in the parking lot! We had a reservation so we were seated upon arrival. The steakhouse has a standard steakhouse feel to it. It does have plenty of windows however to let natural light in, which is a bit different than the standard dimly lit restaurant. Food: Bread Basket - Really cannot go wrong with bread. The rolls were warm and served with soft butter. Vegetable Cream Soup - This was their specialty soup from their monthly menu. It was pretty good. Strawberry Salad - Salad was well dressed and delicious. Loved the strawberries and the cheese abundance. Side of Mac & Cheese - Good portion to share. The mac & cheese was creamy and decadent. Side of Mashed Potatoes - These were good, pretty standard. Mushroom Ravioli - This was good, though I wish it came with more ravioli. The spinach and mushrooms accompanying the raviolis were excellent. My friend also ordered the filet mignon for himself and enjoyed it. For dessert, we were given a little vanilla cake for our anniversary. We also ordered the chocolate lava cake. Both desserts were pretty good. Service: Service was good and friendly. Our server was friendly and checked in on us every so often. The timing of the courses was good. Everything came out as expected. TL;DR - Good steakhouse with decent options for a vegetarian!
