   The food was excellent. The service was great! There are so many meats to choose from. The variety of salads and fresh fruit were added bonuses for our meal.

   I was with party of 4. We had a good time. Our home server was attentive for the first half of our service, but was completely absent for the second half. I believe she left the building because we didn’t see her again. I flagged down a different server and asked for our checks; the checks were never brought. The lights that indicate that the restaurant is closing were turned on, but we couldn’t leave because nobody would bring our checks. I asked one of the gentleman who walks around with the cuts of meat if he could send a server our way, and he does. At this point, we are the last guests in the building, and we wanted to leave. We finally get the checks, which was $130 for me and my girlfriend. I put $200 in the check book and give it to one of the gentlemen that walks around with the meat. Nobody comes back with change. At the time, I was thinking it was rather presumptuous to assume I was going to tip $70 for mediocre service, but this wasn’t the case. A server comes over to me and says that I still have an outstanding balance of $130. I tell her that I gave my check to one of the meat guys to which she exclaims, “oh no” as she seemingly looks around for one of them. My party and I all thought this situation was pretty funny because we’re the last ones in the restaurant and now we’re watching them search for this $200. Questions were being asked and then we see a group of the meat guys looking at us confused. It was all pretty funny. They eventually found it and we were able to get on with our night. Overall, we had a good time. Also, I will say, two of us are restraunt managers and the other two are bartenders, so we are rather critical of service points because we do it for a living, but everyone was pleasant and we did enjoy our time there.

   My family and I have been coming here for years. We love the ambiance. It’s elegant but still kid comfortable. The food is so fresh. The meats are really succulent. The salad bar always has wonderful seasonal fruits. It’s crowded with great people always. I also love the location.

   Although we booked an 8 PM reservation we weren't until 8:20 PM. We were decided a little too top table behind a pillar and it was hard to get meat because everyone walking around with me. It would just walk to the bigger tables and kind of see, not see us. Eventually, I ended up flagging down someone who looked like the manager and telling him that we just haven't had meat come by and so from that point on, we were able to get the meat that we wanted. Overall, the meat was cooked. Well, fresh, juicy, delicious. I recommend getting the $61 menu rather than a $50 venue so you can get ribeye.  my server walked up and started pouring a bottle of water without mentioning it has an additional cost of $7.50 per bottle. Overall, it was a good experience and the food was good.

    Not the best experience. We have eaten here many times each year over the years. The host tried to seat us in the bar area, which is not what you expect with a reservation. The steak tasted greasy and was slow to come out, which is not what we normally experience. The waitress made us feel rushed, removing plates too early, etc. We requested some additional bread to go and were told it would be a charge. For more than $300, I would have expected a better experience overall.
