    Overall, we had a very nice dining experience. Our waiter was excellent. He patiently moved our table to the tea of the restaurant when we requested. He was extremely attentive to our every need during dinner. The wedge salad was delicious. The sides: French fries, creamed spinach and mushrooms were all very good. The tomahawk steak was cooked to perfection and very tasty. The porterhouse for two was cooked to temperature, however it was much more fatty than expected. We were disappointed in the overall steak. Everything else was wonderful. I’d give it another try!
