    Outstanding service from the host to the wait staff. The steaks were perfectly prepared and the 14oz KC Strip was the tenderest and most flavorful I’ve had in years. My brother in law’s ribeye was also perfectly prepared. My wife’s Maple Plank Salmon melted in her mouth. The deserts of in house ice cream and creme brûlée took the experience to the next level. I was quite surprised . We will be back soon!

    The steak was tender and seasoned great but it was warm and not hot as was the asparagus, and mashed potatoes. The bread was great. There were several empty tables in what I believe is the main dining room so I was surprised the food was warm and not hot when it was served. Our server was pleasant and helpful when I asked about the advertised discount and I did not notice the discount had been applied.

    J Gilbert’s has been a go to place for us over the years. We frequently dined there with another couple and we’ve always enjoyed our experience. Last night’s visit was far from the usual. Beverages were good. The blackened steak entrée was no longer available. There were no substitutions allowed on the prix fixe menu, which had previously been the case. Our potato side was served cold and had to be sent back to the kitchen only to arrive after we had eaten our meal. The coconut cake was no longer allowed on the prix fixe menu.. All in all, clearly not the place that we have enjoyed in the past. It will be a good while before we visit again..
