Food was outstanding. I will definitely be dreaming about it! The only negative was that we were charged for dessert when they told us it was on the house. Otherwise, fantastic.

The Bone Marrow here is top tier. I'm in love with bone marrow and have eaten it many of places. This one here is amazing! Meatballs are great as well. The Branzino. I came to this restaurant twice in seven days. Two completely different parties. Both parties had a complaint that the Branzino was just too salty. I finally asked the second party if I could try a piece. I tried the fish first, tasted just fine. Thought they were crazy. Tried the veggies that come on top of the fish and OMG, completely salty! So, if you take a bite with the fish and veggie, the experience will make it salty. DM chefs will need to work on that. I prefer their Apps menu vs their dinning menu if my final thoughts. Drinks and apps, 100%

The Australian Wagyu center cut filet is probably the best steak I’ve ever had. Could have cut it with a spoon and it had so much flavor with a great outside crust. Crowned it with the bone marrow butter. We also really enjoyed the Billionaire potato, added bacon. Our server Gabriella was friendly, made great suggestions, and very attentive. Bartender made an excellent filthy Belvedere martini.

I enjoyed the bone marrow , bolognese, and bread but the billionaire potato was a bit too cheesy and thick for my liking as well as the Texas waygu NY strip which was cut very thick causing it to be underdone . Asked for medium rare but received rare still very blue . They replaced it for me and this next was better . I was there to celebrate a birthday so I didn’t complain but overall not sure I would return as no effort was really made to make the experience better .

We're happy to hear that you chose to celebrate with us and we hope you'll give us another chance in the future. Kindly, Dean's
