    We were seated on the porch which proved to be a quiet spot where conversation could be heard. As we were leaving there was a live musical group setting up near the bar inside. Love the live music!

    Great place and service! I had a dinner with my family and while we were there early before our reservation, we were accommodated with a cocktail table that helped with our wait. Once seated the food came quickly and everything was great. This "small-town" steakhouse can go toe to toe against anything in the big city and suburbs.

    Very good food and excellent brandy old fashions. Ali was our server and she was great. It was my wife's birthday and the restaurant gave her a birthday card with dessert. She was very thankful.
