   Was a special occasion. First time here, and food was excellent. The tomahawk for two was delicious. I have been to many steak restaurants and this beat many. It’s definitely expensive but worth it. It’s a byob. Only thing I would say could be an improvement would be great bread for the table to eat with the roasted garlic served. Octopus for appetizer was the best I have had. A+++

   Mushroom soup, wedge salad, pork chop, scallops and gelato were all excellent. The GF reference next to each item was truly appreciated!

   Had the tomahawk for 2. Excellent. Waitress was lovely. Mac and cheese was outstanding. Delicious fingerling potatoes. Will definitely be back!

   There were 8 at our table and everyone loved their food. The staff were very pleasant and accommodating. Wish there were more choices but what they served was delicious.
