Our waiter Ben was outrageous. Very knowledgeable about the menu and what pairs well with each item. Bone marrow was perfect consistency and the braised short rib toast compliments the marrow perfectly. The dry aged steak was amazing and cooked exactly as requested. The fillet mignon was tender and cooked to perfection. Make and cheese was just the right mix of cheese pasta and bread crumbs. Look forward to dining again there.

The food was excellent… A table of 5 women should not be seated around yelling kids. The drinks were delicious but took so long to get. Other than that…. Well worth it we left full and satisfied!!! I would definitely go back again
