    Our server was excellent, had a nice time chit chatting with him. I was so happy they served A-1 sauce and didn’t make me feel bad for asking. I barely used it tho - the steak was so good and was actually better without it. Their onion rings are literally the best I’ve ever had. We had the Wagyu - it was an experience but I think if I came back I’ll just get the steak - we had a fillet mignon - it was good but I think I’ll try the rib eye next time. A nice place to dress up for.

    I've been to Gracie's many times, but it was my friend's first visit and she was enchanted. And a special shout-out to Erin, our server, who couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. 5 stars as always!

    We went the day before Christmas Eve and it was the most amazing and memorable experience of a lifetime! We had just found out that my FIL has a very aggressive form of cancer and this was a memory none of us will ever forget. The six of us ordered about 9 HH apps and two entrees and everything was a 10/10! The food was the out of this world, our server was the most attentive we’d ever had, and the ambiance was quiet, exciting, and amazing the entire time. I highly recommend this tapas-style culinary experience of a lifetime!
