Benoit, Giovanni, and the rest of the team at Rothmann's are incredible. It's the little things that they do right that make the rest of the experience truly exceptional. My wife and I went there to celebrate our 13th wedding anniversary (24 years together) and the food was exceptional but the service is what sets Rothmann's apart. This is our new favorite steakhouse and will come here to celebrate special occasions and milestones.
