    Love it! Steaks were made perfectly, very tender and great flavor! Our waitress was Alyssa and she was awesome! So friendly and very knowledgeable of the menu. She provided the perfect balance of service while also allowing us time to dine without interruptions. This had the perfect steakhouse charm. We will always return

    We stand firmly behind our team and will never tolerate disrespectful, discriminatory, or racially offensive language directed toward our employees. Our staff deserves the same dignity and respect that we extend to every guest who walks through our doors. While we welcome feedback and take guest concerns seriously, we also have a responsibility to protect our employees and maintain a respectful environment for everyone. We will not apologize for holding that standard.

    Lovely restaurant, decor was beautiful. Inside had a really nice, cozy vibe. Service was really good. Staff was attentive and pleasant. However, the prime rib sliders were dry and lacked flavor. The scrimp scampi was bland and over cooked.

    The food was bland. Ordered a porterhouse steak and it had 0 flavor. Creamed spinach was soupy.
