    Would not recommend this place, the service was horrible, it was very loud and for the price the food was horrible it had no flavor and portion size on the steak was not good. The pork chops had decent portion but there was no flavor overall this place was not good we will not be going back that's for sure!

    Made reservations for a Saturday night for their prime rib. It was gone. The manhattan was the not drinkable. At least I wasn't charged. The wine was ok but a short pour. We were celebrating my girlfriend's birthday and their was no acknowledgement of it. The one piece of good news was the good effort by the very young waiter. One and done.

    Steaks were overcooked. Quality of the meat was lower than expected. The menu online did not match the one in the restaurant.

    Friendly staff! Service perhaps a tad slow, but the wait was worth it. Greatly enjoyed the wedge salad, and the ribeye steak with melted compound butter was excellent! Definitely looking fwd to a return visit…

    First time and won’t go back. Kitchen was slow, I made reservation with notes about birthday that wasn’t recognized. Server didn’t remember who ordered which entree. Dessert was inedible.

    I was seated instantly even though I was 20 min early. I started with the pow pow shrimp appetizer. It was incredible. I’m unfortunately under the restraints of a company budget so steak was in that for the night. I opted for the fried chicken and it didn’t disappoint. Cooked to perfection. My waitress was beautiful and attentive. It will be a must stop when I’m in town.

    From being greeted by our friendly hostess, to our attentive waitress Kelly, to a fabulous meal (filet, chicken breast, chili and Brussels) and a delicious manhattan—we had a fabulous time as a family. A little pricey but satisfied our cravings. A little noisy but we enjoyed it and the games playing on the 3 TV’s at the bar across from our table. Wonderful time of celebration.

    Sides were nice but the steak was the worst cut of steak I’ve probably ever had. Chef would have known that but still served it up to us. Disgrace. Not cheap either.
