    As always great food and great service. We were here for New Year’s Eve with pre fixe menu. Great shrimp cocktails, salads were wonderful, surf and turf was excellent and cheesecake and chocolate cake were excellent. Ordered the wind pairing which was also great . Our server did a great job as always we have great experiences here.

    Although my dinner was good, we watched a customer have his life shattered and the managers did nothing to help. They say they couldn’t help, thus making me realize that this restaurant is severely unsafe.

    An epic steakhouse with a wonderful staff, fantastic menu and outstanding atmosphere. Ocean view tops it all off nicely. Have been wanting to go here for a while and found a good excuse to gather a bunch of friends for lunch - a perfect venue for a lively, comfortable social gathering - food was absolutely delicious and bar cocktails are unique and satisfying. I think I speak for our group when I say I can't wait to come back soon.

    Five stars for the food and our server. Unfortunately, our entire table was very STICKY and dirty. Things actually stuck to the table. We covered the entire table with our napkins. The server apologized. Other servers working next to our table were cussing and complaining about their customers! They were very rude and unprofessional.

    The king crab was amazing. The Snake River steak was very good but the king crab was so much better.

    Great experience. The restaurant was a 5 minute walk from the Santa Monica Pier where we attended the Cirque du soleil show. We had reservations and we were seated promptly. The steaks were delicious and cooked to perfection. The service and food were great. Definitely will be back.
