    I can cook a steak better than that at home… sides were under done… not worth the money spent at all! Also, this place is supposed to have a dress code, the table next to us guy had a T-shirt on… what’s the point of a dress code, if you are not going to enforce it…

    Very, very disappointed that the chocolate explosion has been taken off the menu. We have gotten that dessert for years. We tried the cheesecake, but will be passing on dessert from her on out, if the chocolate explosion doesn’t return.
