Due to the popularity that is now on social media, our reservation was a year out for 2 people. They have a valet service in the front so you do not need to find parking and the price was reasonable for a Saturday night in the city. This place is busy with so many diners inside. This was my husband’s and I first time coming. The menu its self was extremely simple which we loved and easy to understand and they have a great wine list. The prime rib was excellent and we were so full after we were done. I was going to go for seconds but started to get the meat sweats. So I decided to make room for dessert. I would say if you are wanting to go, you might have a better chance for an earlier reservation if you book as a group. We are so glad that we went and would come back again.
