   The food and service here is excellent! I recommend not eating the day of your reservation as there is a lot of delicious food to be had!

   Food was fabulous, service was excellent! Will definitely come again. The roasted pineapple was one of the highlights.

   All the staff was excellent. The food was tasty and plenty to go around for everyone. Price is expensive, so we will have to save up to go again.

   Went on a Tuesday. Not the liveliest of crowds, service was fast. A lot of the meat was medium well / well done, so pretty underwhelming when it came to the quality of flavors... If you like your beef like that then so be it. Not really sure how they charge those prices given the overall experience. Felt like a $30 per person experience. I'd consider coming back. Definitely not to celebrate a birthday, and most likely not on a weekday other than Thursday.

   My experience was good overall. The food was good. Quality meats for sure. The salad bar was nice and I enjoyed the variety of items. I think the true disappointment was the extremely loud pop music playing and being seated in the bar area and having sports on TVs. It made it miserable for me. I feel like that is a real miss for this restaurant.

   The restaurant was nice. The service was bad. I observed other couples and tables being served often and we were skipped often, we had to ask for filet mignon and for grilled pineapple, while other guests were served pineapple and steak over and over. And yes our cards were green so our servers would know we needed service. I was disappointed because we were celebrating a special occasion also. Not sure if I would choose this restaurant for myself but it was the birthday persons choice.

   Place was great and a fun experience. The service was outstanding. First time here and our head server explained how it works and often checked in us. They had a scheduling issue and called me ahead of our reservation and asked us to come in early so we wouldn't have a wait- very thoughtful. The food is great and there was so much of it. Don't pass on the grilled pineapple.

   Our experience was much better this time than the last time. The rib eye was tender this time. Everything was great! The one comment I gave is that they seem to be skipping our table numerous times considering we were the first table closest to the buffet section. They seem to start on the second table and skip us. Not sure why that is.
