It was our anniversary and I’m so happy we choose to spend it here! Everything was exactly how I pictured it, the ambiance, the service, the food, the entire experience was a 10! They even had a card waiting on our table for our anniversary which was so sweet and also presented us with a free dessert which we forced ourselves to eat because we were so full, but it was well worth it to make a little room to taste that delicious bundt cake!

I’m disabled so was on a scooter. Since I couldn’t walk very far, the hostess took us through the back entrance and seated us right inside the door. From start to finish, the staff went above and beyond to make my birthday a memorable one. The food was simply spectacular. I had the 6oz filet, medium rare, and it was cooked to perfection. The brussel sprouts were the best I’ve ever had. The crab cakes (appetizer) was equally good. Every time we finished something, someone was there to take the empty dish, but done in such a way that you hardly noticed. When our favorite steakhouse closed last year, we started an our search for a new one. This will be the new favorite, hands down.
