★★★★★ Our dinner at Delmonico's Steakhouse was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we stepped through the door, we were treated to impeccable service that made my wife's birthday celebration truly special. The manager, Tim, went above and beyond to ensure her birthday was memorable – he personally stopped by our table several times to check on us and even had a birthday card waiting at our table. His warm congratulations and attention to detail made my wife feel like a VIP on her special day. The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between classic steakhouse elegance and warm intimacy. Our server, who demonstrated extensive knowledge of both the menu and wine list, helped us make excellent choices throughout the evening. We began with the classic Caesar salad, crisp and perfectly dressed with just the right hint of anchovy. For the main course, I opted for their signature bone-in ribeye, cooked to a perfect medium-rare, while the birthday girl chose the filet mignon. Both cuts were butter-tender and seasoned to perfection. The sides of creamed spinach and truffle mac & cheese complemented our steaks beautifully. Worth every penny for a special occasion like this. With Tim at the helm ensuring every detail is perfect, Delmonico's continues to set the standard for what a premium steakhouse experience should be. Thanks to Tim and his team for making my wife's birthday such a memorable evening. We'll definitely be back for our next celebration.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
