    This was the best steak I've ever eaten. It was cooked exactly as I requested. It was served on a heated plate to keep it hot and melted in my mouth. The service was outstanding. All the servers were knowledgeable and attentive but not bothersome. It definitely lived up to its reputation.

    The hostess at the front desk is not friendly or engaging. We stood there for several minutes before the young lady, who was very friendly, escorted us to our seats, and the hostess NEVER said a word to us. She never made eye contact or raised her head. The lady standing before us asked a question and she basically ignored her. She is the first impression for your restaurant and it was not good. You were somewhat busy but not very. There was no reason for her not to welcome us. I noticed others were frustrated with her as well, and this is not the first time it’s happened when I have frequent your establishment. Just thought you should know. Otherwise, from the moment we were seated everyone and everything was excellent! Thank you.
