It was a delicious experience. The steaks were prepared exactly to our specifications, and the sides were scrumptious. The restuarant is also so well designed that our conversations were easy to hear. The ambience was lovely. I will return soon!

Beautiful view of the river and nice live country music at the Saturday night live fire dinner show. Food just kept coming out😊 and everything was delivered hot and fresh including the corn, macaroni and potatoes and even chocolate cake and ice cream for dessert. I had the steak 🥩 and it was cooked perfectly as i ordered it. My girl had the red snapper with mango salsa and she loved it
