    Went for brunch - menu is a bit limited if you're looking for more breakfast style food. It was good overall but a bit overpriced.

    The Parker House Rolls were out of this world, but everything else was “meh.” Martinis were watery. King crab was overcooked, dry and rubbery. Steak was cooked properly but surprisingly flavorless. Marsala roasted mushrooms entirely lacking any hint of marsala. Service was nice after a slow start. For the price, entirely disappointing.

    Really great evening with fantastic server and great wine and food. I’ve been here a few times and it’s consistently good but something happens after appetizers - entrees take a long time and each time the food comes out lukewarm. Fix that and I’d give it 5 stars!

    This was my first time visiting this steakhouse, and I was blown away! From the moment we walked in, the service was warm and attentive. The ambiance was perfect—comfortable yet upscale. I ordered the steak, and it was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and seasoned just right. The sides were just as impressive, especially the baked Mac n cheese. Everything exceeded my expectations, and I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience!

    We came here for our anniversary and it was just okay. Nice restaurant and decent food but did not exceed expectations. I expected more from an upscale restaurant. I made reservations and indicated it was our anniversary. Upon checking in, the host congratulated us but the waiter had no clue the whole time while he was waiting on our table. He never asked if we were celebrating anything. Only at the end I mentioned it casually and he brought us some complimentary dessert but no writing on the plate which I always look forward to. Those small special details go a long way. I’d come back for a casual dinner but not for a special occasion.

    I’ve been here several times, the environment and service was amazing as always. However the food left much to be desired. I ordered the pork chop and it came out extremely burned and tough. Polenta was dry and extremely grainy. If this was my first time, I would never visit this establishment again.
