   Our server, Conrad, was excellent. He was polite, attentive, and patient as we took our time placing our order. I ordered our tomahawk steak medium rare, but it came out rare almost raw. He was nice enough to take the large cut pieces back to the kitchen and have it seared. I requested for a bottle of the Hartford Court Pinot Noir but they did not have it, so I ended up with a bottle of the Decoy. It was good. My husband ordered the ahi tartare, but it came out gray in color & was not appetizing at all. Ahi should be red in color, reflecting the freshness of the fish. We did not finish the ahi tartare appetizer. For dessert, I had the double chocolate soufflé. It was not a soufflé...the cake should be fluffy & slightly crispy top layer with some height. It was dense & flat in size.

   The sides were tasty, the meats were cooked to the perfect temperature, and the service was impeccable. The noise level, and the layout left a lot to be desired. The tables were placed so close together that when the adjacent table was being served, the servers backside was right next to your food. There was even a table placed right next to where the dirty plates and cutlery were collected making conversation nearly impossible without shouting.

   Our favorite neighborhood restaurant. The steaks are always 5-star quality and taste and love the casual dress code. The restaurant is quite noisy so conversation for seniors is a little challenging, but the food makes up for it!

   We came in for a Thursdate and had a very good time service and food The only thing we didn’t care for was the Chocolate Soufflé cake that tasted like it was microwaved…..

   Waited 20+ minutes for our first drink order and another 20 minutes for our dinners. I ordered a ribeye medium which came out well done. Second try came out blue rare. Third was rare. Ate a bit and took the rest home because I own a microwave. My plate looked like a crime scene.

   We came here to celebrate our anniversary. First time at this location. The place was a little too cramped for me it felt too crowded like the tables were too close to each other. Staff was nice and it was a busy Sunday night. Husband ordered medium rare ribeye but it came in as medium well. He didn’t want to wait any longer for another one so he just took it but informed waiter to let cooks know. He ate about 20% of it. I had the miso butter fish which was good. My little one had salmon for herself and ate half, she said it could be better. The mashed potatoes was bland and there’s something about the sautéed mushrooms that I can’t pinpoint just alright. It’s a good thing the server asked if we were celebrating anything so he made it special. Would I return in the future? Maybe not for a while…

   The steaks we ordered, filet and rib eye were cooked perfectly. Tender and juicy. Surf & turf (lobster tail with a filet minion ) were delicious and tender. Our calamari & scallops were awesome, ordered a second calamari that we shared. Service was great with waiters giving us sufficient attention. The arugula salad was delicious that we shared. Waiter brought and gelato with a candle for my wife’s our friends birthday. Will return again .
