    First time at this location and it didn’t disappoint. Went out for a holiday date night and it turned out perfect. Both of us ordered the main filet mignon, one with scallops and the other with crab. Both were cooked to perfection. Had a fantastic bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon from Frank Family Vineyards with it. And for dessert, the New York cheesecake with strawberries. Our waiter Jeffrey was very attentive but not overbearing and made sure we were taken care of. Thanks Jeffrey!
