Everything about our anniversary dinner here was outstanding! The service and the food (notably the bone in NY strip & prime rib) couldn’t be better, and we love the old school steakhouse vibe!

Crab cocktail - off the menu but available by special request. This is the most incredible delight to snack on while waiting for your entree. Every steak is cooked to perfection - best spinach - mashed potatoes - the freshest wedge (a meal in itself) and the service is consistently first class. We also discovered a new wine Reputation. Try it. You won’t be disappointed.
