The cut, flavor, temperature and seasoning were the best I’ve ever had at Rosebud tonight. Two skirt steak that definitely outshined prior visits to Morton’s, Gibson’s and RPM. The meal started with the crowd pleasing chopped salad. Loaded with cubed vegetables. We ended with delish banana cream pie. Thank you for the spectacular meal tonight!

Had a lovely Christmas dinner with all the family at Morton’s this year, it was my first holiday not cooking for the family and Morton’s did an outstanding job. I think this will become a yearly ritual per se for our family since everyone got something different to eat and everyone was happy. Thank you for making our holiday delicious!

Always a pleasure and a treat to dine at Bluegrass. The hosts are so gracious, the food is always delicious, and the service is excellent. Our favorite dishes are the orange chicken and the smoked chicken which is a Tuesday night special. The latter is served with the most scrumptious corn pudding. Our friend had the tilapia which she really enjoyed. You can't go wrong with any menu choice there.
