I love to hear my 93 year old Dad say 'this is the best filet mignon I have had in my life'. He like the pinot gris white wine from Oregon, and he is hard to please. Successful birthday dinner. The kitchen is full of amazing talent!! I would have given everything five starts, but it took an hour to get our dinner, missed the asparagus we ordered and we never received bread at our table. Yes, of course, there is always new serving staff to blame but let's not. One of the other servers who came by our table more than our own server brought my Dad the melted butter he needed.

Overall for our first time it was good. However everything was not up to par with the prices you pay. Our server was rather slow and did not care to be personable. She also only cleared one plate while other people walking by did. I had the filet which was really good, but I could tell that the cut of meat was not worth the $72 price tag. It was very similar to the cheaper filet I get at Texas Roadhouse. The flavor of the seasoning was also similar. This is not a diss to either because they were good but just a little disappointed of the price.

Have been dining here ever since they opened. Never disappointed until today. Requested to be seated on the comfy chairs and for Ana or George to be our server. Neither request was fulfilled and no explanation given. Service was very slow. Received our main entree of lobster. Drawn butter not brought to table until done with the lobster. Requested a glass of wine while ordering the entree. Wine delivered to table a the end of the meal. Overall food tasted very good despite the poor service. Miss the previous managers a not one came by the table at all!

Those who ordered beef had good food- all cooked to perfection. My grandmother ordered chicken and it was so dry it was like a brick. She also ordered a margarita, which was literally 2 shots of tequila and lime juice. No sweetness, tasted like the rind of a lime in a bad way. Bitter. The service was minimal- we got drinks but never got any refills or questions for one and everytime he stopped by it was for a sec and then was gone. Very disappointing considering the price tag of everything, you’d expect better service.

Our food was very good. Our server was excellent. We had some problems with the menu. I don't know why but we seemed to get the Thanksgiving menu even though that was a while ago. Also on the bill the computer rang up a bill higher than the menu price on the cedar planked salmon. It was corrected once it was pointed out to the server. It should have been right when presented for payment.
