Made reservations a month in advance asked for a quiet section of the restaurant for our year anniversary when we got there they wanted to place us outside on a noisy cold street and then I said what the heck so then they put us inside by a table where there was a huge family and it was extremely noisy with screaming kids so we ended up sitting at a bar having dinner there the food was mediocre. The expensive a la carte filet mignon came out super cold and wasn’t good at all and service was poor. Would not recommend it at all. Definitely way better steakhouses out there for sure!

We had the Tomahawk, it was outstanding. The chocolate lava cake however was not molten in the middle - either because that's just how they prepared it or because it was botched, not sure. Service, ambiance, noise level was perfect.

We made a reservation for 2 for 7:00pm Sunday night. We show up at 7 and they tell us they don't have any tables inside for us (which is what I selected when I made the reservation). They offer for us to sit outside on the street or at the bar. Really??? We chose the bar as it was a chilly night and the tables were literally on the street. The bartender was good and friendly. However, my husband ordered a filet and it was cold. That really shouldn't happen at a steakhouse. We were disappointed.
