    The steaks are excellent and the server, Mary, was beyond expectations. The entire meal, in my opinion, was heaven on Earth. Going to Doe's is a pleasure that I drive 30 miles to enjoy at the very least once a month and often more frequently. The drinks are top notch. Tonight I had the featured French Onion Soup and it was surpassed only by the French Onion Soup in Paris, France. Overall I would give the entire experience a TEN.

    We went for our 4 year anniversary. It wasn’t the ambience we’re used to for a steak dinner, HOWEVER, the customer service/hospitality, especially from the hostess, was stellar. She was very friendly, and came over to explain the menu in detail while our waitress was away. The food was even better than the service! We have had a many steaks from steakhouses and this one by far is just flat out delicious. From the appetizers to the entree, and even the cocktails! 5 star! Come early because parking is tight! Other than that, it was worth the money and time-and we didn’t have to dress up! We will be back.

    $200 for my wife and I to share a ribeye which their knife could hardly cut & (1) side. Steak was Way too tough. The taste was ok - but the texture (medium rare) was horribly hard to chew, etc My wife enjoyed her side order of fried asparagus, with some type of crab topping.

    Emily, our server was great! I ordered the 10oz filet and I got the end of the tenderloin which has silver skin and connective tissue in it. As a result my filet was not as tender as I expect. Also, I ordered medium-rare and received rare. Had to send it back to the kitchen. and of course it came back medium and in some areas of the filet it came back well don’t the chef needs to trim this area off and use it for something else like mince. tamales were good!
