Reservations is a must during a holiday like today. Only had to wait a few minutes before our table was ready. Our server (Camille?) was impressive being able to balance so many plates, but she also kept our drinks filled. Some cuts of meat were dry (lamb chops, pork belly, and bottom ribeye) and some (sirloin and garlic sirloin) were perfect. The tomahawk steak (entree order) was cooked perfectly and big enough that we (party of four) had to take the rest home. While it was quite noisy, it’s understandable given the day. Overall, I felt I had a pretty good experience.

Moises and staff are always marvelous! Meats at the necessary temp (ask for temp you want) and service is always on point. When they are super busy, please be patient they are only human 🙂

Always a fun time here. Our main server was Jeffrey and he was awesome. The entire wait staff was genuine and helpful. The pace of the food to the tables was a little slow. The hostess staff could use a few lessons in grace and diplomacy. The food was as good as ever. Love the super duper salad bar! Our first visit back since Covid but it's on our rotation list now

Due to the holiday season/rush (1 week before Thanksgiving weekend), we ended up waiting 20-30m past our reservation time, as did others. Staff was attentive and handed out hors d'oeuvres for those waiting. Once we were seated, service for drinks and food were back to your regularly expected service levels. The menu has changed a bit and they didn't seem to have more than (maybe?) 8 items walking around. I guess its typical for unpopular items to be cycled out of rotation. Still a 4/5 experience and would return.

Terrific salad, bar, and food. Good service the only downside was a delay in being seated for 30 minutes after my reservation. Although we enjoy this place, this is happened repeatedly before and management refuses to adjust how many people they allow to make reservations. We suggest that they reduced the number of reservations, so that people can be seated more timely manner.bar
