    What an amazing experience! We are big fans of the Hell's Kitchen show and other Gordon Ramsey shows like Master Chef. The food was amazing, came out quickly, and was worth the price. We went to celebrate our fifth anniversary and every staff member who helped us this evening congratulated us. It made everything so much more special and personal. Our waiter was so kind, patient, and knowledgeable about the dishes. Thank you all so much for the amazing food and experience, we will remember this forever!

    This was our second time at the grill. The food and service were both outstanding! Our server was wonderful. We got oysters, calamari and tuna bites for appetizers and my husband and I both got filet mignons. They were cooked exactly right. He also had the asparagus, pimento Mac and fries. All the sides were amazing as well. We will be back!

    Great experience overall. There was a bit of a wait at the front while the hostess checked some coats. A party who came after us tried to cut the line but the gentleman who came took care of us right away since we had reservations & someone else took the walk in group. Service & food was excellent. The igloo experience was the best decision since it was intimate with a great view & we played our own music. Staff was attentive even if we weren’t inside. Loved the decor & every minute there!
