    Everything was wonderful once we got in the restaurant. We would have never made a reservation had we known the Christmas Parade was happening. What a traffic nightmare!! Now let’s get back to the food. Everyone enjoyed their meal, my wife had seafood risotto, it was delicious. My MIL had the small filet, she loved it. My FIL had the fried shrimp and was impressed. I had the bone in Ribeye and it was exceptional! Sides were asparagus, onion rings, and shoestring potatoes all were on point. The highlight for me was the escargot, simply delectable. Thanks to everyone at Musso and Frank for making my wife’s birthday dinner outstanding! Cheers until next time.

    The food was absolutely excellent. Amazing Caesar salad, pasta, wine, steaks and sides. The bearnaose sauce was perfection. The desserts were incredible. Wonderful server, I wish I got her name. She was a standout. My only complaint is the noise. The music is so loud you can nearly hear each other. Apparently they pride themselves on this and that’s why they don’t turn it down. At these prices and with such a beautiful decor that makes it more club than restaurant, though the food is first class.

    Went for our 15 year anniversary a couple of months ago and experience was fantastic. Had some live music with a man and his guitar, wasn’t as nice as the big live black male band on our anniversary( go on a Thursday eve for that) singing all the Marvin Gaye and Stevie wonder + hits, but was enjoyable. Went again for Thanksgiving with 7 family members & restaurant did not disappoint. Spread was beautifully curated with a few more extras to highlight the Thanksgiving holiday. I think I had about 5 lobster tails 2 being the thermador. Crab was great but a bit spikey and hard to hold. Love that they had lamb chops, garlic mashed potatoes and fluffy Persian rice too. Surprised I was able to to enjoy some of their decadent desserts, as the bread pudding was delish along with the apple cinnamon roll. Everyone had such a good time that they were talking about returning next year with additional family members. So perhaps this will be a new tradition. Def recommend going here instead of shopping, cleaning, cooking and cleaning again.

    The seating experience was great! Were brought to the bar for a drink and then our table, staff was very nice. The food was great, but our server was not very friendly. Seating was fast and course timing was perfect. Would recommend!
