   This was our first experience at this establishment and to say it was frustrating is an understatement! We arrived 30 minutes early for our reservation to see if they could accommodate us. We stood at the unattended host desk for approximately 3-5 minutes while multiple employees walked past us without acknowledging our existence. Once the host arrived we informed them that we were a bit early for our reservation and if they had availability to seat us that would be preferred. The host fumbled around for a bit to find the proper menus only to be missing the appropriate children’s menu for our 4 year old. I ordered the Cesar salad made table side but never was it made by the table. It arrived fully prepared. We ordered the filet medallions for my toddler which arrived about 45 min before our entrées. The waiter kept waking by the table and making up excuses for the long wait for our food but that didn’t provide much reprieve when our well behaved toddler began loosing his patience. When our entrées did arrive we barely had one to three bites when the waiter came by to offer us desert. My wife thought that the waiter was trying to buy us time with our toddler by providing them with something to entertain them while we tried to hurry up and consume our food. When we received the check the prices did not match the ones on the menu. The price of the Cesar salad was $1 off (in our favor) and the price of the children’s filet medallions was around $24 when the menu had them around $18. I did not challenge price discrepancy but instead paid for my meal and couldn’t leave fast enough. My wife and I were extremely disappointed with the entire experience and this will not be an establishment that we will visit again. Management needs to get their act together and do better.

   They were really great in accommodating our larger party with a small infant. Keeping us on a side of the restaurant where we were near other families of small children and could relax and enjoy our meal without worrying about disturbing other people without children

   Sadly disappointed. We chose this restaurant to celebrate a special occasion. Ambiance had a red dated vibe and there was a musty old odor in the air. Restaurant was mostly empty at 6:30 on a Thursday. Service was slow and even absent many times. Our drinks (wine) took over 20 minutes to be brought to the table. The waiter made a grand production of preparing the tableside Caesar salad, but despite our requests, the salads were dry and lacked that tangy garlic flavor. A tray of raw steaks wrapped in plastic wrap was brought to the table as we were educated on the different cuts of steak. No less than 45 minutes passed between the time we finished our salads and the steaks were brought to the table. Numerous excuses were offered. All steaks were ordered medium rare, but the ribeye was medium, at best, and the filet was raw. Dinner service for three people on a slow Thursday night took three hours for a salad and steaks and a couple glasses of wine. It cost over $300 and was definitely not worth it. I do not recommend
