The service was very good, the food was overall very good, didn’t care for the carrot slices. Had martinis that could have been a little more chilled. The staff made us feel special by going the extra mile for my husband’s birthday.

The food and service was fantastic! This was a last minute find before an event at the AAC. Made a reservation and was extremely pleased we did. My only complaint was how loud the music was. We ate early and think we were one of 2 tables at the time but we could hardly hear our own conversation. It didn’t take away from the experience though. The pricing was a bit high, coming in at $360 ( after tip ) but not shocking. I had a ribeye that was perfectly cooked and seasoned with a baked potato. My partner had the chef special which was steak and lobster tail with a crab sauce. 2 cocktails and 2 bottles of still water.
