    This place normally receives 5 stars across the board from our family. However, service was extremely slow for the roughly 4-6 tables in dining being served. Food was missing from the order, and then never arrived. I used to say this was the best Reuben sandwich in the area. Last night it had more bread than corned beef. I asked for scorpion salt and received about 6pcs of a pepper. I asked then for scorpion salt and was told that’s how it comes. I questioned the waitress and after a several minutes and the small amount of fries I received were all but gone, she then brought the correct scorpion salt. It was not a great experience last night.

    We were greeted and quickly seated to our table upon arrival. Our server took our drink order fairly fast and gave us ample time to order. We ordered the Prime Rib in the 3 portion sizes offered - all medium cooked. One in our party ordered a Caesar Salad side, which was brought out quickly . Then the wait took place…a long wait before our entrees arrived. I ordered the King’s portion and it was the fattiest prime rib I ever saw - roughly 1/3 of my portion. Really disgusting. The flatware was of cheap quality and the knives were awful and dull. Not something one would expect from a steakhouse of sorts. All three of us had lots of fat in our portions and they were all undercooked - medium rare at best. When our server asked how things were, I mentioned the fat, and she sharply retorted, “our chef never trims the fat in house” and walked off. Because of the closeness to Christmas, I was generous with the tip, but honestly, they didn’t deserve it. This restaurant is one of those - close but no cigar - kind of joints. Could really be good, but misses the fine touches that make the difference. We won’t be going back.

    Took our college student out to celebrate his birthday. Our first time here did not disappoint! Received excellent suggestions and service from Victoria. Enjoyed cocktails and whiskey rings for appetizer. Wagyu steaks and medallions were fabulous. Great selection of sides.

    Underwhelming decor, server pleasant but took way too long to take our order. My son’s meal was microscopic.

    It was a beautiful night to sit outside and the outdoor dining was thankfully open. It was a little loud at times because of the traffic, but that didn't diminish from the atmosphere. We had the filet mignon and the Bastille medallions. Both were cooked to order and tasted delicious along with the sides. We also ordered the warm chocolate chip cookie with ice cream which was the perfect ending. The service was wonderful; the staff pleasant and accommodating. Our meals were on the more expensive end of the menu, but well worth the cost. We will definitely be returning.

    Just average. Would not return or recommend to others. For a place with “whiskey” in their name, pretty sad Old Fashioned. Steaks/Prime Rib were chewy. Service was on par with Chili’s or other chain. I’d rather go to Texas Roadhouse or Longhorn…
