    My husband and I enjoyed a date night out. We made last minute reservations and were able to snag a table at 8pm. We ordered our usual ranch rings for an appetizer and then both enjoyed a steak dinner. The fillet was cooked perfectly and my husband’s sirloin seasoning was exceptional. Don’t skimp on dessert! We loved the seasonal banana foster bread pudding!

    The bartender Victor was friendly and prompt. He made excellent lemon drop martinis. The bread was baked in a pizza oven and served with dipping oil and was amazing. I had delicious mushroom risotto topped with chicken. I’ll definitely go back!

    First time eating there in many years. Service was impeccable and the wait staff were on it, we went at an earlier time so not a lot of patrons yet. My only complaint was my filet was a tad overcooked and a little stringy.
