    The food was amazing! The salmon rated "best I've ever had". The dry aged steak was phenomenal. All of the main courses were in the "best of" or "some of the best of" category. The sides and appetizers were pretty good but probably not worth the price.

    My reservation was mixed up, reserved upstairs, but they were about to sit us downstairs, I had to show my reservation confirmation. I wasn't pleased. Ordered the Market Price fish, Mahi Mahi blackened and the fish was quite dry. Couldn't finish it. The bar drink was incredibly weak. The wait staff was wonderful. Although my husband enjoy his Bison ribeye. This was an anniversary dinner, I wasn't satisfied. Had been there previously and had high hopes.

    We were lucky enough to get a table during the Grand Illumination and the food absolutely matched the beauty of the parade. Every bite of our meal from the pumpkin soup (that has the most amazing homemade croutons!) to the tuna tartare that was just melt-in-the-mouth delicious and the delicious scallops…every single bite was just amazing. I’m absolutely going to come back because I saw someone else get the GL burger and I NEED to try it! Looked amazing! Our server Christa was absolutely amazing. Extremely attentive but without being overbearing. Our drinks were always tended to and she was very knowledgeable about the dishes we were eating. The whole experience was just delightful from beginning to end.
