    Cute restaurant and concept. We enjoyed the bread and salad. Wine list was pretty limited. Steak was good and sauce was delicious. We were told we were brought a different tables steaks by mistake for our first round which was weird considering they write your steak level on your table. They were good and juicy still. The biggest issues were the fries. The first plate received were the chewiest toughest fries I have ever had. I’m assuming they was some kind of issue with fryer. My boyfriend tried pouring some of the sauce on them and still couldn’t stab them with a fork. The second round fries were better but still not great. Maybe just an off night. Our server was sweet and checked in on us often.

    We came here for my fiancés birthday dinner and had a terrible experience. We thought the restaurant seemed like a fun concept, but were left disappointed. For serving a set menu, I feel like the food was extremely underwhelming and our meat wasn’t even cooked to order. The service was even worse—they never brought refills on drinks, left us waiting for a check while they were completing closing tasks, and did nothing to acknowledge my fiancés birthday despite me letting them know with our reservation. It was a Friday night and we were one of a few tables in the restaurant. Definitely look elsewhere, especially if you’re celebrating an occasion.

    I was very excited to try this place for the steak and fries and initially things were great, got my bread, got my salad and got my steak and fries and a beer, which were great, shortly after I finished my meal I got my bill, I asked the server about the second steak serving which everyone raved about. Her answer was I'm so sorry, you were supposed to let us know when you ordered if you wanted second serving as part of brunch and it's automatically only for dinner. The table next to me got a second serving as part of brunch. So $48 for a beer and thin piece of steak was a bust, that ruined the whole experience, especially when you expect top customer service. How is someone who's never been there know to ask for a second serving. At least the ambiance was nice. Very disappointed.

    The salad was great, unfortunately the first round of steak was cold. Second round was warmer, but over cooked. Have been before and had a much better experience!

    Food was so tasteless for the price you pay for. The steak was really tough and without any sauce, it is just so bad. The fruit was definitely not fresh and mimosa was average. I would not recommend coming here. They sat us down by the kitchen and it was not cute at all. It felt like we were at a taco stand. Not worth the money.
