   I am not sure if had an off night or what but it was my 60th birthday and I just wanted the best ribeye made. Not sure what I got but it did not taste like any ribeye I have ever had. It was quite thin and lacked flavor. I was so disappointed and only ate 3 bites of it. Parm mashed and carrots were good. My daughter had surf and turf and her lobster was not cooked much at all. Now they did take care of making her a new lobster tail, and were very apologetic to her but by then we had been there so long that we felt bad for taking up the table space so she threw it in a to go box and we headed out. My friends who had filets said theirs were good and the choc cake I ordered for my birthday dessert was perfect. But the main reason I went there was for a steak that was not good at all.

   Friendly & efficient service & lively ambience. Salmon was perfectly cooked. Would suggest additional NA beers - many of us dislike Athletic & only 1 choice is not customer friendly

   Had a Lemon Drop cocktail 🍸. Was very good. We both ordered the Colorado Chicken Salad. We were both disappointed in the chicken. It seemed to have been cooked well before and just refrigated. Was tough to chew. Overall though the salad was delicious. Finished with a 5 Layer Lemon Cake.

   The server was very attentive and did great notifying the manager about my food allergy who then came to my table to follow up about it and ensure me the chefs knew. Great food and service thank you!

    Super slow service. Felt overpriced and terrible seat by the kitchen where take out orders were being assembled right by our booth. $18 for a hamburger was ridiculous. Happy hour pricing only in the bar was disappointing too.
