My wife and I dined at Eddie V’s this past Friday night, Jan. 3rd for the first time. We arrived 15 mins early of our reservation and were sat immediately. Marcus was our server and from the start he made us feel welcomed, providing pleasant conversation with a smile. The food, overall, was terrific with two cons I will detail later. We started with Calamari and my wife ordered a 24 karat cocktail. Our entrees were a Chilean Sea Bass and a 10 ounce Beef Filet. Our sides were creamy mashed potatoes, scallops and Brussel sprouts. We did not have desert. Pros: The Calamari was very fresh and flavorful with a hint of spice, enhanced by the sweet Asian dipping sauce. The Chilean Sea Bass was mouth watering good, very buttery and the soy broth was spot on. The sides were large portions and very tasty, especially the scallops and the mashed potatoes. The filet was seasoned well with a great crust and it tasted wonderful. Cons: The filet was ordered mid rare and it came out more rare. My wife did not want to send it back so she ate around the center. 1 more minute on the fire and it would have been perfect. The desert menu was standard fare with no cheesecake, nothing to right home about. The cons were minor and the pros outweigh the cons. We really enjoyed our first visit and we look forward to returning. We will ask for Marcus again.

Mari was a fantastic server. Food was exceptional!

Exceeded our expectations. We loved the vibe, the place was packed providing a great buzz, the menu was loaded with delicious options and the seafood was so fresh. The parking lot was pretty tight and jam-packed, so we were disappointed there wasn't valet....but that was the only low point. We are looking forward to our next visit already.

My partner and I had a fabulous experience at 97 West. We grabbed breakfast the morning after NYE and fell in love with the atmosphere of the bar. I had the Tex-Shuka, which was similar to a traditional shakshuka but with smoky salsa instead of the traditional, sweeter, tomato-based sauce. My partner had the Steak & Eggs breakfast - one truly standout dish for just a traditional "steak and eggs" plate! The steak was cooked perfectly to a medium-rare and was well-seasoned, while the vinegar-based sauce on the side complimented everything perfectly. I would highly recommend this place for breakfast, especially for the prices! Great value for your money here.

As we expected, the food was perfect...tamales and chicken fried steak. The service was great, and I love the Backstage Club..brings back many memories of past rodeos.
