We went for a party of 15 . While the accommodations were met as far as our area , for our server to let us know once we sat down that we couldn’t move around cause it messes up the orders , I was a bit taken back by that comment . While the whole party wasn’t there yet it came off to be a bit rude . I did not hear any other table with large parties get told that . The food was served in a timely manner but to say that the food was top tier vs another steak house would be false . Overall it was a decent first time experience at this specific location , and maybe I will try again to come back maybe for a dinner with a smaller party .

Our server Carisa was absolutely outstanding! She was a ray of sunshine. The only comment we had was that the bread that comes with the meal could use an upgrade. Overall, it was a great experience. Thank you!!! John and Deb Thompson

Our order was all wrong. Were were missing an appetizer and side dishes. Our baked potato was initially overcooked and brown, the waitress brought us another one that was raw. It was one thing after another.
