I had made reservations for my wife’s birthday here, it was our first time at this establishment. As soon as my family and I arrived to the restaurant, hostess greeted us and accommodated to my request I had left on the reservation description. We get seated nice view, our waiter seemed to be a little arrogant but none the less we ordered some drinks in which were good and fairly priced. we order our appetizers which was escargot and scallops. Escargot was good but the scallops needed to be cooked a little more in my opinion as well as way to much salt seasoning and the breading underneath them was burnt and tasted burnt. My family and I have eaten scallops from other high end establishments that tasted on point. Than our steaks and fish where okay nothing special, of course we paid for family size sides and also was okay. Everything time our waters ran low excellent was provided to refill them without needing to be asked but the waitress just seemed very un social and when complimented on our water refills they wouldn’t say anything just walk away. I felt like we were being judged by the waitress/ waiter on our outlook as if we couldn’t afford to eat there or whatever the Delma was in which was also uncomfortable. Overall first time experience and first time being there for my wife’s birthday was not that great. I probably would not come back here for a long time. Surely the food that my wife, 2 kids and myself ate was not worth almost $400 !!! I would have been just as happy going to road house getting a bigger steak with sides included, better hospitality, and a lot cheaper as well as tasting. The republic also felt very outdated in my opinion, it’ll be a long time before I go back again hopefully next time it’s a better experience !!
