This was quite possibly the worst meal I have had at a premium steakhouse in a long time. Food, service, delays - everything was terrible. Incredibly disappointing for a Christmas Eve dinner.

We were celebrating my birthday before a show. We were easy to deal with and had simple needs. The food - salmon and fillet and a side of mashed potatoes and a couple of wine glasses. The food was excellent. Just 2 of us both around age 70-75. Our waiter left us alone at the start for about 25 mins. We finally asked another to get him. He disappeared a few times and it was hard to get our check. Finally there was a big error on our bill - we were overcharged for our wine. We did not even realize it but he later did and took it back to correct it. I’ve been here many times but not for a year. My prior experiences were excellent and we were well taken care of are of. I’m not sure why our waiter showed so little interest in us. Next time - hmmm - not sure. Maybe we will go elsewhere. Surely we can find another good $75 fillet.

We were celebrating my fathers 88th birthday. Our server Janice was outstanding. She was so kind and patient with our large party. She made extra effort to make my fathers birthday special. He is hard of hearing (as is my mother) but Janice was sure to speak with them so they could hear her. Janice is a true asset to your company. I worked for Four Seaons Hotels for almost 25 years - she is a excellent example of 5 star service.

We have the most magical experience since the moment we walked in. We were greeted kindly and brought to lovely seats. It only got better from there. Our waiter was absolutely amazing and the food was the best I’ve had in a long time. I highly recommend and I will be back
