    The owner was extremely friendly! He took the time to introduce himself to every table and welcome them for dinning there. Our waiter was also extremely polite and made sure we had everything we needed and were taken care of. My husband enjoyed his food and thought it was very good, however, I did not have the best experience. But they immediately got me a replacement dish. Overall the atmosphere and staff were extremely polite, but the food in our opinion was mediocre.

    Excellent food, and outstanding service. We enjoyed the ambience and the noise level was perfect for my hearing-impaired husband. Most restaurants these days will blast music but this experience allowed me to have a conversation without having to yell. The drinks were tasty and the price was reasonable.

    The ambiance is like a school prom or a fundraising event, which we didn’t expect for a restaurant. Our reservation was at 7pm and when we arrived they didn’t have a table for us. Got seated around 7:30 and our server didn’t come around to take our order until 8. We didnt get bread until we asked for it bc they had “ran out” and was “heating it up” but when we finally got our bread it was cold. Our entrees didn’t come out until 8:55pm for a 7pm reservation. Then when it finally did the steak, which we asked for medium rare, came out well done. The seafood pasta was quite fishy and the pasta was very overcooked as if it had been sitting around after being prepared. The only thing good was the fried calamari appetizer.

    Went for my wife's birthday. Friends told me to go to the Fairgrounds location. Atmosphere was dark, felt like we were at a wedding reception. Steak was very undercooked. And I've never experienced a tough Delmonico before this night. I just took it home and cooked it a little longer. No big deal. French onion soup was good, wedge salad was on point. Goat Cheese Fig crustini was really good. Going to try the best Western location to see if there is a difference . But for $300+ I was really hoping to get a steakhouse experience closer to Turning Stone.

    Food was delicious- particularly the seafood lasagna. Our party also had prime rib, clams with linguine, and chicken parm. All very good. Rolls were nice and soft and tasty. No complaints at all. Our server, Allie, was fantastic. Atmosphere was pretty good, although it got a little loud at times. Would definitely recommend.
