   Had a special birthday dinner, at Morten’s, with the family, before attending Hamilton at the Hobby Center. I had made a 4:30 PM reservation to ensure we would not miss the 7 PM curtain. We just made it with moments to spare! Overall the food was excellent, the rack of lamb with Madeira wine reduction was fantastic, the Ribeye with black truffle butter sublime and the lobster ravioli was delicate and flavorful. The Wagyu meatballs were excellent, but the bacon wrapped scallops were too salty from the bacon. The crab cakes were meaty, but lacking in flavor and not a stand- out. The table of six enjoyed the parmesan truffle matchstick fries, the crunchy panko- crusted onion rings, the Guy-ere/ bacon scalloped potatoes and the jumbo asparagus- grilled to perfection. The guys enjoyed a single- malt whiskey flight and the ladies shared a Greysac French Burgundy. Our waiter brought out a complimentary chocolate lava cake with ice cream for the table to share- delicious! At 6:35 we were getting nervous for our check so the non- theater member of our party settled the tab while we headed to Hobby. A joyous birthday celebration indeed!

   Power was fabulous! I cannot think of his name right now, but he was prompt and through! Food was above expectations.

   Food was 9/10. The only disappointment was the lobster mashed potatoes. Not as creamy and tasty as I’ve had at other steakhouses. Service was a 10+. We loved our overall experience and would highly recommend.

   The waitress came to our table when we first arrived to get our drink order, brought the drinks back, came back to take our food order, someone else brought our food, and we didn’t see her until the end of the meal. She passed our table several times and looked at us as she went to other tables. She even stopped to chat with tables that she wasn’t serving. We didn’t get refills at all! Then when she finally came over she asked if we wanted boxes to box it ourselves or did we want her to box it. We eat at fine dining experiences often and I’ve never been asked if I wanted to box my own food. I also didn’t hear her ask the table near us that question. One thing about us is we tip generously at least 20% plus for ALL dining experiences. Even the ones that cost us 300 or 30. However, this I couldn’t justify it. She’s lucky that she got 15%. All in all I wouldn’t return. The spinach was bland with no flavor and the steak was overly salted. My husband’s steak was supposed to be well done and was medium well. The free bread was the best part which is funny because she didn’t offer us any and another waitress asked if we wanted any and brought us some. We won’t be returning because as I watched her be a better waitress to everyone around us it made me call into question WHY we were singled out.

   The environment has topped other comparable restaurants by far! The drinks and food took my taste buds out of this world! The server we had was named Luciano and made this experience felt exclusive and very unique would choose him again without a doubt!
