    1st Time here … have heard many good things. Great Service … server was on point, took care of all our needs !! Was very disappointed in the AGED Steak - the porterhouse for 2 Was cooked perfectly as requested “med. Rare” but just didn’t have that much flavor or taste… especially for the price . Disappointing, over cooked asparagus, and dry overdone old baked potato. Have better at other places … don’t know or if I will / would return. Better steak places out there if a night out !! Over cooked, Over priced, Over rated, 👎

    The food was & always is on point at L & M’s. Our server Whitney is the best server we’ve had to date. His attention to detail & overall friendliness & vibe was a pleasure to experience. Thank you.

    Truly a fantastic meal. The service was exceptional. Our waiter, Issa, took plenty of time to explain the menu and provide recommendations. And all through the meal, he anticipated our needs. The steaks were all delicious and perfectly cooked with lovely char on the outside and medium rare. The sides were great. The bread was great and came with a delicious goat cheese and a butter as well. The atmosphere was quintessential steakhouse. We will definitely be back.
