We arrived early for our reservation, and they were able to accommodate us right away. The service, food, and ambience were top-notch. Yonis, our server, was very attentive and made good recommendations. This was a business dinner and we had a chance to share our experiences in a comfortable environment. Definitely would recommend for a business or a night out dinner.

The steak was fantastic! Wonderful food in a very nice atmosphere. Our particular server (and service) was just ok, not as good as what one would want and expect, but I really think that was just fluke. I am still giving 5 stars because I highly recommend this restaurant for the food and atmosphere. If you choose this place I think you will enjoy it.

Not a fault of the Restaurant, but the parking is very convoluted. The restaurant could make a better effort to ensure that this isn't going to be a problem. We were brought right to our table. The waiter was very green and kept forgetting things. He would take our order and then forget the entire thing and come back to ask us asking what we wanted again. This made for a very difficult time at the table with constant reminders and things being forgotten. The table itself proved to be very wabbly, so we asked that it be fixed. They decided to move us instead. While we were moving the waiter came out with a course that was supposed to be prepared table side and went about preparing it away from the table and not in front of us. Not to mention that the beef was very very raw inside and it was delivered that way without question. Then there were side items that didn't come even with reminders until after we finished dinner. My glass of wine didn't come until I was half finished also. To be fair, the items that we didn't have issue with were delicious. The over cooked meat and the under cooked meat were traded around the table to people that could tolerate them. We go out frequently and enjoy going places that are exceptional in order to have an experience rather than just eating something for a meal. Overall this was an exceptionally wrong experience and certainly not worth the very high prices, even with some desert and drink comps. We have come here multiple times. and have brought many friends. But I believe this will be the last as the last two times within the past couple of years the experiences has seemed to have gotten worse.
