    Clean, sheek restaurant with friendly staff. First visit here. Thought it would be more of Mediterranean type food. Food service was fast and very tasty that we chose in limited menu ( which we like ). I had GF flank steak while my husband had the wagu steak and we shared sides of potatoes and carrots. It’s a la cart. A little pricey, but do recommend this place.

    Date Night tonight. Thoughts: we were seated within 5 minutes after arriving (even though we were 15 minutes early). The place looks high end and was very clean. It is a touch loud but once you settle in you understand the noise level is because everyone is having a sensational dinning experience. Service was incredible!! Heather & Auggie were an amazing team who were flawless! Food was delicious. We had the fillet w/truffle butter, prime NY Steak, loaded mashed, mushroom skillet, and the cookies & ice cream. Each dish was cooked and seasoned to perfection....5 star all the way. My only criticism is that we were seated across from each other and could not sit close together (which is my preference). Meat Market is now officially in our rotation...See you again soon

    We were celebrating our 30 th anniversary. We wanted a romantic yet fun winery type experience. This delivered on so many levels. The charcuterie board was out of this world. The wines Highest Beauty, and Sea Smokes Chard were amazing with our meals. First class service from Daniel and all the staff that had his back tonight. They acted like we were the only clients they had when in fact we were definitely not. All things were followed up with an amazing Chocolate decedent dessert that’s out of this world. So for a guy that NEVER leaves reviews - this was an excellent experience. We are so glad we came here. Cheers to all 🥂
