    Excellent service from the greeting to the drink at the bar to the server. We were walked through the process step by step of choosing your ideal meal and never rushed. We had salads to start and each selected a different cut of beef that were all perfectly seasoned and cooked. The sides were hit or miss- the creamed corn was corn sitting in a milky substance that seemed separate from the corn. The sautéed spinach was nothing remarkable but the asparagus and gigantic baked potato were great! We will be back!

    The server was really nice and mannerable although it took a while to receive our meal. The food was so so; my Salmon and Broccoli were overcooked, which was a bummer! So, I probably won't be back for a while.
