Incredible experience! There were 3 of us for Dinner for my son's birthday. Started at the Bar and Shawn mixed magical brown butter old fashions. The deviled eggs and crab toast appetizers were awesome - they even made a slight change in the crab toast because I have a Salmon allergy. The kids had Caesar salads and I had the biggest wedge salad I have ever seen in my whole life! It was absolutely spectacular. Main dishes we ate: I had the ribeye and fingerling potatoes, amazing! My son had the Filet Oscar with asparagus and said it was fantastic. My daughter had the braised short ribs with celery, carrots and potatoes and loved it. For dessert we had the cherry bread pudding - which was outstanding!
