Customer Reviews
Great food and excellent service. The atmosphere here is very classy with fine tablecloths and settings. I had a steak salad. This place knows how to cook a steak rare. At too many places rare is interpreted as “medium.” Here, the waiter confirmed that I wanted my steak rare, and then ensured that it was properly prepared. Portion size was exceptional, with a good balance between steak and salad. The flourless chocolate cake is wonderful. I only wish that I had found this restaurant on the first day of my conference, instead of the last.
Zach was the BEST server. He deserves a raise. Very personable, very kind, comical, and just a genuine all star. Food was excellent and service was unbelievable. I recommend this place to everyone and I will come back!
We attended dinner here for business. This is a classic steakhouse. Waiters wore uniforms. The sommelier offered excellent choices of French and California wines with the meal. Sides are served family style. Although it is a steakhouse, my wife and I both chose grilled salmon with green beans and they were delicious. All wait staff exhibited professional service. This was a great experience.
Booked for my wife's 60th Birthday treat (was $260 for 2 - no appetizers, 2 entrees + 2 drinks and they presented my wife with free dessert treat). My steak entree was great - tender and tasteful. My wife's tuna tartare was fine but not exceptional. Dessert was wonderful. Service was very attentive and they did make a fuss over my wife for her birthday. Nice sitting for us as we had a booth - probably worth asking for those as some of the tables in the middle of the room did look slightly close to each other.
