   Food and service was excellent. A bit pricey, but for special occasions, such as my Daughter's birthday it was great. Unforunately she lost her gold,diamondand onyx ring there. Not sure if outside the restaurant or inside. Please if you find a ring like this, contact me as soon as possible. Thank you for your service and help. Denise Bethe

   Such a great meal! Started with the calamari, which was cooked perfectly, then continued to the 8 Oz filet, which just melted in your mouth. The scalloped potatoes, which normally i would not order, were amazing! My husband had the porterhouse, which he did the blue cheese on top. Holy cow, this was amazing! tender and seasoned well. We will definitely be back!

   Our waitress was great and our food was great but the overall experience was not so great because our table was right by the kitchen which had a very active and loud swinging double door. For the price no one should have to sit and that at that table. We didn’t complain because we didn’t want our guest to be uncomfortable but it was almost intolerable to have the kitchen at your table. We have been there before and had a great experience but this time it wasn’t. A smaller table for two in that location would be able to be tucked into the corner but a table for 5 was not acceptable for the location.

   Hi Denise, Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad to hear the food and service were to your liking, but we sincerely apologize for the discomfort caused by the table placement near the kitchen. We understand how disruptive that can be, especially with the noise. We hope to provide a much better experience next time and look forward to welcoming you back soon! Cheers, Kaile Kortner Beverage Operations Manager

   Our server Aaron was exceptional! My apologies if we were laughing too much. It was the perfect night and everything was right on the money. The drinks were refreshing and light, and the food was great. We got the feta and artichoke which was SO creamy and delicious. For entrees we got a tenderloin, the shrimp scampi, and the chicken Carbonara. BEST chicken carbonara I have ever had. The desserts are HUGE but so good. We got the hot fudge sundae and the tuxedo bombe which were both terrific. Can't wait to go back again!
