    My brother ordered the NY Strip and he mentioned a single Dorito had more seasoning than his steak. Flavor profile was mediocre at best. From our four meals I do not believe any of it was truly fresh and made in house. If you are looking for fresh and flavorful food this may not be the spot for you. Our server did a good job of checking in and being friendly.

    All food and drinks were great with the exception of the beef medallions. I ordered medium well and they were cooked medium rare at best. The table beside us had the same issue.

    Our table wa given away before our check in time so we had to wait 20 minutes to get our table. We had to wait 20 minutes to receive drinks. Steak was over cooked and not good. After we ordered 20 minutes later we were informed that our mashed potatoes were not servable?? No discounts offered… Very disappointed

    Great atmosphere; friendly staff; nice selection of food and drink, though they were out of a couple of my favorite draft beers.

    Our food was marvelous! The portions were generous and the price fair as compared to other equitable restaurants in the area. Our waitress was young and inexperienced. She brought our meal out just a few minutes after delivering our appetizer. So it sat on the table getting cold. Even if it is ready to be served, I’m sure there is a place to keep it warm in the kitchen while we enjoy other courses. Or if it is something that is ready quickly, delay placing the order and monitor your table. This is something that is learned with experience. Also, if the wait staff has friends, family, or even regular customers, it is a bad idea to sit with them at the table while working. It leaves a bad impression on the other customers that are waiting for your service or attention.
