    We stood at the entrance for about five minutes without being greeted. I had the gnocchi and asparagus. The gnocchi was covered in brown mushroom sauce,was too salty,and the gnocchi itself doughy and dense. The asparagus was cooked well but had a white hirseradish sauce I did not like. My partner had the Signature prime rib two ways. It came with a small baked potato that was good,and string beans. Not all the beans were trimmed,which is unforgiveable. The meat was overcooked and not very good. The manager breezed by,asked how was our food and did not wait for an answer. The food was considerably overpriced,especially considering that the quality was low. The server and busser were lively,and excellent. We will not be going back.

    I would not recommend this restaurant to those looking for fine dining. It was adequate and the service was extremely slow.

    Our server was great, my daughter loved her pumpkin spice espresso martini, lamb loin chop and especially the filet. I had a Erath Pinot Noir which was delicious. We ordered the hamachi, and Beets for starters- both very good. The dry aged ribeye was huge and cooked almost perfectly- a little more on medium side.. I like more rare. My grandson still talks about his filet and lobster Mac n cheese. The whipped mashed potatoes and green beans were good.. would eat here again, just to try more on menu!

    J Paul’s always delivers that exuberant experience you look for in a high end steak house, the food follows suit, and the eccentric art is a nice finish to the overall experience. Been before and certainly coming again.

    J Paul’s Italian Steakhouse is decorated very nicely, and we liked our surroundings. It was moderately busy in the steakhouse, so it was a little loud. Our waiter seemed a little busy, so our service was okay, and it was hard in general to get service. There was no one at the front entrance reception, so we had to walk into the restaurant to request our reservation. Overall the service was average. However, for the price you pay for dinner, we’ve had much better elsewhere, which was very disappointing. The wine was flat. There were errors in the salad we ordered and errors in how the steak was cooked. Though the mashed potatoes were delicious, the vegetables were average, and the appetizers were average. Overall, everything tasted fine.

    My husband and I were having a date night at this restaurant and we were not happy with how long it took to get an order. We had sat in the restaurant for one hour prior to even being asked what we wanted for dinner. The general manager was kind and ensured that he ordered our drinks and ensured to check on us. Our waiter, Joseph was fantastic, and the food was out of this world. The service and the food made up for the wait. We really enjoyed our time. Thank you.
