The overall experience was great. I was not happy with my portion size nor cocktail. However after the 1st bite of food i was satisfied. I believe i just selected the wrong cocktail I ordered the beef wellington and was impressed, i only hoped i had more of it. The ambience was great with low lighting to set the mood.

I made a reservation for my husband's birthday after the Tenderloin Room was recommended to me by a coworker. My husband and I love trying new steakhouses, and he loves surf and turf, so I thought The Tenderloin Room would be perfect. It did not disappoint! We appreciated amenities like the coat check and valet. We were seated at a quiet and private table immediately upon arrival. The service was fantastic, and we loved that we could see the cooking area from our table. My husband really enjoyed the surf and turf and French onion soup. The complimentary birthday dessert was a very nice touch. I opted for the strip, which was tender and cooked perfectly. The brussels sprouts were equally amazing. Overall, it was a great birthday dinner for my husband. We both thoroughly enjoyed it, and will be making plans to return soon.
