    Out of all my visits, this was my least favorite one. No bread rolls and I went for my bday and the table wasn’t decorated with rose pedals nor a complimentary dessert like they always do.

    Everyone was nice…steaks were probably a little undercooked. Potatoes were very good.

    Was able to sit outdoors and enjoy the wonderful view! Server was amazing, service was not rushed and we were allowed to enjoy and take our time. Steak was perfectly cooked, added the lobster tail with an amazing butter!!

    We ordered prime rib, medallions, mashed potatoes and broccolini. Prime rib had a nice char on it. Medallions were ok. The sides lacked flavor and our food was lukewarm when we were served. Service was very attentive. Ambience is what was expected. I’m not sure we would return.
