Dakota’s Steakhouse offered a wonderful dining experience. The steak was delicious but would’ve been better bone-in for the value. The salmon was perfectly cooked and flavorful, and the mashed potatoes were the best we’ve had at a steakhouse. The staff was friendly and attentive—our waiter was very knowledgeable, and management ensured we enjoyed our meal. The calm ambiance, live piano music, and lack of crowding made it even more enjoyable. Highly recommend!

Rare to have such a great experience all round nowadays, but this was the case with Mar Y Sol. From arriving to valet parking, the amazing and knowledgeable service and suggestions from Andrew (our server for the evening) to the delicious food and cocktails (frozen margarita, yum! A tropical paradise in a pottery mug!) and the perfect ambiance and helpful, friendly staff all round (smiling, friendly, helping take photos after calling to say we’d left our card behind etc), I’d say this is a must visit place. We had a wonderful experience!

We went to the Foundation Room for dinner before a concert. It was a GREAT experience! We had a cozy booth to relax in, and ended up ordering several appetizers to share rather than entrees. Drinks were great, food was good, there was live music, service was great. Ambience was totally chill! We will definitely choose this for our pre-concert meals in the future!
