   Spent over $400 for 3 people. Steaks were horrible, how does this “steakhouse” justify $60 steaks that were so thin, rubbery, overcooked and tasted like they were microwaved. Would have been better to just go to Texas Roadhouse for better steaks at quarter of the price. Horrible food, with best part being the appetizer and oysters.

   Even with having a reservation there was a short wait when arriving, which was not the end of the world. However when seated the wait for food and drink was very long. The cocktail that I ordered took near 15 minutes and our food took well over an hour to arrive after being ordered, and this was for only a party of 2. My Wagyu steak came out over done to the point the outside had black char part of the way around (I ordered medium rare), and my girlfriends Filet Mignon was under cooked to where it was still bloody (ordered medium well). With the wait for the food already being so long we did not want to send them back so we both just ate what we were given. Our server did check on us however they only waited for one of our answers each time, and did not let us both answer whether we needed anything or not. We were there the day after Valentine’s Day which does explain some of the issues, but when paying that much for a nice dinner the service could have certainly been better or at minimum some of the delays could have been better communicated.

   Seriously one of the worst meals we ever had. Food wasn’t cooked and not edible. We waited 90 minutes for two simple salmon dishes. Just awful. They should close this place down!

   Waitress was very good and attentive. Food took a long time, but it was Valentines Day weekend, understandable. My steak was cooked to properly but was not hot, like it sat for a while waiting for another dish. Ordered 13oz strip, which was the larger thinner type which is not my preference.

   Waited for 1hr20min to finally be served. Steak was cold and poorly prepared, potatoes were undercooked. Was expecting a top tier experience for the price but was extremely sub par. Restaurant was severely crowded. Assumed that management was trying to take as many reservations as possible but kitchen and wait staff was not able to keep up. Personally I will will go to Hyde park or capitol grille from now on.

   We were rushed by the crew. Something about a busy night and people waiting. I had 4.45 reservation and made it on Monday. I arrived at 4.40 and left at 5.50 pm. By no means were we slow or occupying a table for extensive amount of time. My bill was 510.00, so wasn’t like I ordered a small amount. I’m a foodie and have dined here a few times in the last few years. I travel throughout the us and love to go to fine dining places. I’m sorry but I was never been so rushed today like tonight. The waitress was very good and nice but obviously was told to table as fast as possible
