    Hanger steak was just okay, nothing special. My wife & guest both had the halibut & did not comment, but afterward both told me me their fish was way overcooked. What was supposed to be a special “thank you occasion” ,was a disappointment.

    As usual, beautiful ambience, wonderful music. The special was the Prime Rib that night. My guests were not that impressed, a little chewy and felt the horseradish sauce lacked something. One the other hand, the salmon and AHI dinners were fabulous.

    Food was good, but on the expensive side. $275 for two with tip and a couple of drinks is high for wheat was a solid dining experience but not exceptional

    Everything our table ordered was sensational. We had the Chilean sea bass and the seafood salad asta special were fabulous. The salmon was also outstanding. This is the third time we have eaten here and have enjoyed every meal immensely. Outstanding service and ambience. We will return.
