    Food was off the charts great. My filet was the best I’ve had….period. Only complaint is that it is a very loud restaurant , mainly because it is so small and always busy.

    A good but extremely small restaurant , crazy they picked such a small location. I had a seat at the bar the last seat on the left so was constantly bumped by staff who were working and the rest room was also in the hallway so customers bumped into me. They serve stakes on apparently 300 degree plates so you cant touch your plate, its a crazy gimmick, cook the steak correctly in the kitchen and keep plates in a plate warmer, job done. Steak was fatty and not great. Expensive for what it was. Positive was the bartender was exceptional. Food 3/5 price point high.

    As a return customer, we’ve never had an experience like this before. The 8 person table next to us was extremely loud (which the restaurant has no control over). From the moment our drinks arrived and our order was taken we never saw our server again, for anything!! No inquiry as to how things were, if we wanted coffee or dessert, or a box or check. We had to flag someone down to ask for a box and the bill. And the augratins were not hot. If something was “off” last night, we would have understood had an apology been made

    Its a charming small steakhouse, with excellent food, and great services. We went there to celebrate my son's 21st birthday, steaks and sides were fantastic, wait staff was great. Its not cheap but what good steakhouse is these days. We will totally go back again, but next time we will get the bone marrow appetizer, it looked great.
