It is an old school steakhouse with a modern twist. Starting with a great cocktail & wine selection and ending with delicious desserts. The Reserve has high quality steaks prepared exactly to your liking, excellent shared sides. Yes, it’s a casino steakhouse, but it is by far, my favorite. You can never go wrong here.

We had a great experience at Mousa Saturday night before a show at the Rialto. Shay, our server started us off with a little shot of smooth and delicious Ouzo. We ordered the trio of dips with pita, which were delectable, the grilled vegetables, perfectly done, and the chicken shish kebab, which was also delicious. Shay suggested the Mousa potatoes, which were amazing - each piece crispy on the outside, served with a delicious sauce. Mousa is a warm and inviting restaurant, and we will be back!
