    Riverhouse has amazing customer service! I was so disappointed that I had missed the lobster thermidor special last night and they told me to come tonight and they would make it. They did and it was AMAZING! The cheese appetizer and my husbands ribeye were great as well. The drinks and dessert were the perfect additions. The service was very nice and the river with snow was a beautiful site. We really enjoyed our impromptu date night!

    We had a wonderful dining experience at Le Moo. Jennifer was our server and she was friendly, knowledgeable and very professional. We had the lettuce wedge, ribeye (prime)-cooked to perfection, with the fried potato cakes. The food was exceptional and the turnaround time was very quick. We frequently dined at this establishment when it was the old K.T.'s, so it brought back many memories. They made awesome updates, but kept the wonderful nostalgic ambiance. I highly recommend dining at Le Moo.
