    We were in town for our senior UT daughter’s ring day and it was a special night celebrating her achievements. Dillon was an outstanding catering to our table of 6 and he was thoughtful and kind with suggestions and options to please everyone. The Tuna was perfection; the steak filets absolutely perfect medium rare, and the sides all were lovely especially the traditional Mac and cheese. This locations is more polished than the Houston location were we have previously been, and our upstairs level seating was a beautiful view. Thank you for everything, we will plan her graduation dinner here!

    It’s not the first time that I visit this restaurant for special dates and this visit didn’t disappoint. The food was great, the service was amazing and the ambiance was really good. Since I was celebrating an special event the staff had a different setup on the table with a card - which I loved. I definitely recommend this place!
