The service and food were both wonderful. Per usual. A friend and I had a girls night and both enjoyed a fillet and ended up sharing the espresso crème brûlée. It was chef’s kiss.

The lobster is an incredible deal. It could have been a bit more tender but that's kinda looking a gift horse in the mouth. What gets me is that the service is very bit as excellent as if we were paying the going rate for the meal instead of the deal. Staff is always very attentive and helpful. The Pecan Old Fashioned, made with Rye whiskey is super in my opinion and it is a very decent pour. You simply can't go wrong on an early Monday evening.
