    Recently dined at RC’s (*Michelson Location) w/my family; we enjoyed our dining overall dining experience as we typically do! Our server Jarred was courteous and helpful to recommend entrees and suggests cook temperatures for our steak cuts. Unfortunately, 2 of 4 steaks were still prepared medium rare’ despite ordering *medium plus; however, the chef was happy to sear the cuts to our liking and comp’d the meal that took the longest to re-prepare as all other accompaniments became cold while waiting for the filet. We were advised that there was a new chef which may have attributed to our experience, this could have certainly been a one-off, nonetheless we will most definitely return to enjoy dinner as we are consistently pleased with the quality and our experience!
