    1 Filet Mignon was ordered Medium and it came bloody red to the table. Un-eatable ! It bordered on RAW. Another Filet Mignon was ordered Medium Well & it was dry & hard to swallow. ———————— Both understandable as we did not know how the Chef interprets his grill and cooking. ————— The REAL disappointing item was TWO dogs were IN your restaurant at TWO different tables…..being held by the patrons AT THE TABLE ! How disgusting ! How in the world is this not a health hazard ? These were NOT service dogs ! I would think the Board of Health would NOT take kindly to that scene ! None of us at our table would ever like to sit at that table right after those people with the dogs finished & left. I can’t imagine your staff that cleared the tables did any extra sanitizing of those 2 tables. WHY would you allow this ? Tell your customers to leave their dogs in the car…..or better yet…..at home !

    We are disappointed that your steak was not to your liking. As for the dogs, according to the Americans with Disability Act, we can only ask two questions. 1. Is that a service animal required because of a disability? 2. What work or task has the dog been trained to perform? If they answer both of these questions, we have to allow them to enter the restaurant. We apologize that they interrupted your experience. Dan, GM

    Sat at the bar and enjoyed a terrific lunch while watching the Indy 500. On a previous visit the manager told me about a new addition to the menu— hummus with pita and crudités— and he very kindly brought the dish to our table— it is delicious!! As a vegetarian I’m always pleased when other options are available— and this hummus is excellent— along with crispy pita and fresh veggies! We sincerely appreciated the thoughtful and kind gesture! We will definitely return.

    Everything was terrific! Caitlyn took excellent care of us— while tending bar and waiting on other tables— food was very good— had an initial glitch with my husband’s fish— it was promptly replaced and he was extremely pleased. Very happy with everything!

    Had a reservation, was seated fairly quickly. No menus given to us, no QR code to scan, no server for first 20 minutes. Finally got a drink order in and one menu to share for four of us, and another 20 minutes to get the drinks to us. Food was mid. I ordered mahi tacos and you get three of them. There was about one ounce of fish on each, skimpy. Forgot our sides and sauces but they went ahead and charged for them anyway.
