One meal was really good, the scallops. But the steak was tough. The server was very nice and helpful and had great suggestions and knew her product offers. All and all it was better for me than my date.

Our service was not great, no water refilled etc. My salad came with large leafs on a small plate with the chicken breast laying on the side. I asked the server to have the kitchen chop it up for me and was told it was a firm no b/c of ruining the presentation. What a mess!
