    We go here for special occasions and this Christmas season was no exception. Our servers were great as usual, Shane was very attentive and the other help made sure our food was delivered piping hot, and of course delicious. We appreciate the staff for working on Christmas Eve and making ours most enjoyable. thank you very much!!

    I’ve made better steaks at home, definitely not the same quality since the acquisition by Darden restaurants. Wonderful staff and service as always, but corners are obviously being cut when it comes to food quality.

    Side dishes arrived lukewarm at best. Petit fillet had fat running through it. Shoestring fries are very very thin so the ends are burnt. We told the waiter we love our desserts, but at the end of the meal he showed up with a birthday dessert and never allowed us to choose our own desserts. A manager showed up halfway through the meal and acted like he had no idea what our issue was. I don’t feel like I have to explain to the manager what is going on in his own restaurant. It was a strange experience and unfortunately, not a great one.

    Thanksgiving Dinner … we were fortunate to find a spot at Ruth’s the day prior and were very excited. Unfortunately, it was a fail for us. Although the waiter was great, we waited about 40-45 minutes for our dinner and when it arrived - the meal was cold. The turkey was drenched in gravy, overflowing with it. I think the restaurant is known for its steak, not Turkey, I would go back for that but never Thanksgiving.
