    Steak had too much char and was very salty. Blackened red fish was salty also.

    A lovely dining experience and excellent choice to meet for dinner with friends, date night or to celebrate a special occasion. There is a beautiful bar with a very well versed bartender, so heading in a little early to have a drink is a great idea. The decor is very warm and cozy and exactly what I expected for an upscale steak restaurant. It does however have excellent seafood options and a large variety of vegetable side choices. The Brussel Sprouts are wonderful! The appetizer and salads are very inviting and portions more than adequate to share. Both salads we had were large and perfectly prepared. One member of the party had the filet which was pure perfection while the other two had seafood also fresh and wonderful. My only warning is be aware portions are generous so know that when you order if you are not a big eater. The service is extraordinary on every level. It was a perfect addition to the experience. Wine list while not extensive is more than adequate leaving the opportunity for perfect pairing. I highly recommend and we will return - often!

    As this was our third visit, the Friday after Mardi Gras, the mood was laid back and chill. No more crowds. No more packed bar and restaurant. But the experience was warm and amazing. Wonderful stone crab and grilled redfish. Sides are among the best in the City. Service was exceptional! Cannot recommend more.

    the restaurant is so loud we couldn't hear the waiter speak, we couldn't hear each other speak. I still don't know the waiter's name after asking him 3 times. The food was okay but not outstanding. The rib roast was not hot and it was rather tasteless. Cocktails were good, wine list is good. That's about it. Not worth the prices they charge.

    Everything was great considering they were extremely busy and running behind on Fat Tuesday. The only issue was we have a group of six that were seated in a booth that was designed for four. 3/6/25 Update Came back two days later…. And WOW! Food was better, didn’t think it was possible and service was first class. Bacon, oysters, crab cakes and prime rib for the win.
