    This is one of my favorite steak places in the US. Not what you would expect given it is “off the beaten path” so to speak. You need to order from the bone menu and your taste buds will be treated to one of the tastiest, most tender steaks you will have ever eaten.

    We brought our extended family there for Father’s Day dinner and it was fantastic. Service, drinks, atmosphere and food were wonderful…have the Asada if it’s on the menu. I highly recommend Highlander Bat & Grill. Make sure to Golf while you are out there as well

    We had a wonderful meal at Bella Roma for our date night. My husband ordered the Carbonara and I had the ribeye steak. We both loved our dishes. We shared the Panna Cotta for dessert and it was delicious. Our only complaint was it was too small to share, LOL! We will be back as soon as we can! Thank you, Davide and Felippo!!
