P.S. Steak is very quickly becoming my wife and I’s favorite restaurant! We are huge fans of the ambiance and think their food is excellent. Their prices are on the higher side, however, we went during happy hour and took advantage of that and were far from disappointed. Would recommend, for sure. Our waitress was also top notch, really enjoyed the experience.
