We went to Cast Iron for my husband’s birthday and let me tell you everything was amazing!! It was great to have complementary popcorn instead of bread on the table. Every single one of our dishes came to the table piping out! I loved how attentive the staff was. Once they noticed you were done with your cast iron they would come and take it off your table to make room for the rest of your dinner items. We will definitely be back! It was a great experience.
