We had an amazing dinner celebrating our bride to be. Sam was such a gem, best service and energy he made our night that much more fun! Chef Ivan came out and introduced himself! We enjoyed every dish so much, the scallops and pumpkin soup were delicious! The filet mignon cooked perfectly, and the Caymus is always a treat! Loved our evening here!

Tuesday night was low key and allowed for conversation among our group with no issues. Service and food was great! Tuna tower and short ribs were definitely commented on at the table.

Food and drink was good. The service was meh - felt like the server was a helicopter hovering over us. And it wasn’t even remotely busy.
