    My 38th birthday dinner was fantastic and I had the 3 most important people there tonight with me. My husband, parents, & myself particularly love the quality of the water because it taste so clean , crisp, and fresh. Our server Charles was amazingly knowledgeable when he presented the type of meats, cuts, and quality of each chopped. I highly recommend the bone-in dry aged ribeye. All the food that we ordered was delectable. Thank You again for the birthday dessert. Looking forward to another great dining experience.

    My wife and I had her birthday dinner on February 25th. It was our first time visiting and was very impressed. The restaurant looked very nice, clean and inviting. Our food was delicious and our waitress was very informative on selections and took her time to explain any questions we had. Actually I would say she was the best waitress we have ever had! Her name is Ava. We will definitely be going back!

    Absolutely delicious and the staff was very accommodating. It was our Anniversary and we even received a complimentary toast of champagne. We ordered the Surf and Turf which is my favorite and had the Deviled Crab Dip as an appetizer.

    Let me start by saying this we spent about $700 for this evening. When we went it was 7:45 and they closed at 9:30. We made reservations well in advance for this time slot so ofcourse we didn’t feel like we were coming in close to closing or anything but this is how we felt. It was Sunday on valentines weekend but the restaurant was not busy, maybe 3 other visible tables. We had a party of 6 adults and 1 child. The food- for Apps-we ordered the short rib Mac and cheese, calamari, crab dip, and ceaser salad, and wings. Short ribs were amazing. Mac and cheese was not very hot or cheesy. Calamari had an amazing spicy sauce but the calamari was soft. Not Fried nearly long enough. Almost uncooked. Buffalo Wings were very very tasty almost a sweet spicy taste. Now for the crab dip-AMAZING. Wanted to order some to take home. Dinner- we ordered the baseball sirloin in medium well. Received it well done. Was very chewy. Crab cake sandwich as well as crab cake dinner was DELICIOUS. So tasty the entire table had to taste. Duck confit was extremely overcooked.. which was disappointing because I love a crispy skin on my duck. The inside was just DRY. The beet puree it was on was amazing. Very tasty and slightly sweet. NY Strip was delicious. Seasoned well and cooked to perfection. Dessert-crème brulee was ok. Would not order again. Ice cream scoop $3.. eh. What can you do. Now for the service. Left much much much to be desired. When we first arrived we were seated quickly. But our service actually started that morning. A text confirmation we replied too.. then a few hours later a phone call Confirmation as well.. which is fine. We realized it was a booth so on the phone we requested a table due to one guests mobility issues. We were told They were completely booked so a booth was all they had.. ok no worries.. but remember we arrived and almost Every table was open. THEN at 6 we received ANOTHER CALL letting us know our reservation time was strict and if we arrive mo

    Absolutely one of the best steak dinners and dining experiences we have enjoyed. The steak was perfect in every way and complimented with delicious sides and topped with a crab/lobster/bearnaise! The sommelier paired the dinner with a modest robust red much to our liking. The wait staff was superior. Highly recommended.
