"Best steak I've ever had!" said my husband who is a cook! Service is top notch. David, our waiter was superb - friendly - attentive. Wine was good. The New York Strip was sizzling and cooked to perfection. Environment was festive, warm and inviting. The rest of the staff that was involved from entry to exit were superb. We'll be back on our next visit. Our compliments to the chef. And David really added to the experience.

A very very good place for a special occasion or just a night out. Make your reservation early, they do book up. Service is above and beyond as is the food and the bar service. If I had any complaint it would be is the ambient noise as the place fills up, but that is minor compared to everything else. They have some of the harder to find liquors as well so if you crave something particular there’s a good chance you will find it here. All in all this is definitely where you’ll want to eat for an exceptional meal, exceptional service, and exceptional drinks. We will be back again!! Thank you to the front of the house, bartenders, and back of the house.
