I don’t usually go out for dinner on Thursday nights but I was craving the cowgirl ribeye at Becks. It was delicious, juicy and made me very happy. Perfectly cooked medium rare. The beet salad, sans beets, is a huge salad and well composed. Next visit I want to try bar top service. Really enjoy this place. Great service, very friendly.
