    What a lovely atmosphere for a delicious Wagyu steak! The setting is beautiful and cozy and the steak was divine. My companions were the steak enthusiasts and their choices were the Spinalis and the Cowgirl Ribeye and both were prepared to perfection. The salads and the appetizers were ideal for a me. The blue cheese salad and the avocado salad were fantastic with crisp butter lettuce and yummy vinaigrettes. The fried artichoke came with a delicious aioli and was very gently fried and well presented. The waitstaff was attentive and knowledgeable and the wine impressive and reasonably priced. An excellent evening tucked away in the Crosswords of Carmel.

    What a great night! First of all, food is outstanding. Yes, it's pricey but it's not overpriced for what is served and where (Carmel) you are. It is a surprise given it used to be a "chain" bakery. We shared the housemade sour dough bread with amazing herb butter, fried artichokes (not at all what you expect), the Delmonico steak (cooked to perfection) and the flourless chocolate cake. (my dirty martini was also delicious!) We chose a good night... couple local celebrities in as well...fun to whisper about them! (yes, we left then alone) Good time...will definitely go back and bring friends. We were both a little surprised there weren't more diners on a Friday night.

    A truly lovely evening out to celebrate a birthday. The restaurant is beautifully designed, with great attention to detail, and the staff made us feel very welcome. After carefully considering the menu, we decided that we couldn’t go wrong with any of the choices. We chose to share the Delmonico steak, which was perfectly cooked to medium rare, with a trio of delicious sauces. From the first bite to the last, the steak was amazing! Luckily we saved a little room for dessert. The sticky toffee bread pudding was a sweet delight and the pistachio cannelloni had a perfect crisp shell and creamy filling. We are already looking forward to the next time!

    As a wagyu fan I have to say this was truly the best I’ve ever had and our friends all agreed. Worth the price. Flavorful & tender & perfectly seasoned & cooked! The presentation & pairing with duck fat steak frites impressive 😋 will definitely return. Just to mention, it’s not a large space. We dined on a Wednesday night & it wasn’t busy.

    Family and I went here to celebrate my wife’s birthday and it did not disappoint. The food and cocktails were fantastic and the ambiance was great. Made reservations earlier so there was no wait time. They were out of a few cuts, but not what we were going with anyways so it worked out. We got some bread from bread song and it was delicious. The kids got the Wagu burger and I assume it was amazing as it disappeared in a couple seconds. We also went with the cook your own steaks on the 500 degree salt bock, which was also a huge hit. The wife and I shared the DelMonico and it was awesome. Every bite was great and you got to experience 4 different cuts in one steak. It was the perfect amount for the two of us. All in all, the staff was great, the food was great, the space was awesome (on the small side), & we would definitely come back.

    I heard that this restaurant was unbelievably good. Nothing about it was at all good. Cold, uninviting atmosphere. Front door that doesn't close by itself so every time someone came in or out the door was left open and it was freezing outside. We were seated by the kitchen doors even though there was pretty much no one else in the restaurant. Took forever to get our cocktails, had to pay extra for bread and butter and the steak was not to our liking temperature wise. Cold Cabernet Sauvignon, never experienced that before. Overall bad experience.
